Verdict

DIVALI PRINCESS has been found a suitable opportunity to score with Chaim and Don't Tell The Wife our alternatives. Alan King's filly has been in fantastic form of late with two wins on the bounce this season. She could be better still for a step up in trip but her presence on this occasion has scared off much of the meaningful opposition. Chaim landed one or two nice bets when obliging last time out. One or two of those in behind were little better than plating class so improvement will be required. Don't Tell The Wife was well beaten on seasonal reappearance. It is not unreasonable to expect some improvement for the outing. The jockey bookings may though suggest smart bumper performer, Fiftyone Fiftyone as the preferred option from the Seven Barrows yard. Blue Teal faced a stiff task against Mad Max at Ascot last time out. Qazy de Joie looks the pick of the Jonjo O'Neill pair while Springfield Gunner shaped with a degree of promise in a couple of bumpers during the summer. Divali Princess gets the nod.
