Verdict
THEATRE PRINCESS will be all the rage here and it's not difficult to see why. Mick Winters' mare, six times a winner between the flags, landed a maiden hunters' event at Cork last month in very impressive fashion and this looks well within her capabilities. Cant Pay Wont Pay was also a very easy winner between the flags at Belclare last month while the lightly-raced Hurricane Ben, who ran in a Gowran bumper before just beaten in a point at Ballyarthur, can show improvement. Kilcolman Hill completed a double in points before a poor run in a maiden hunters' race while Lexife won a moderate mares maiden at Monksgrange earlier this month and will need much more.
