Oasis Prince won easily at Catterick and is 6lb higher. But he was beaten by HELLENISTA when the latter scored over today’s trip at Ripon last month and having gone close in a tougher contest at Chester on her latest start, Tim Easterby’s filly gets the vote. Carlos Felix has placed over 2m in the past but most of the remainder step up in distance with 1m4f winner Stormbreaker preferred to Grimsby Town and Levitate.
