The seller can go the way of Ambrose Princess ahead of Casa Mia and Liani. The selection won two starts back at Ripon when dropped to this class and he followed that run with a good fourth at Kempton. That was a better race than this and now back in selling company, he is fancied to win. Casa Mia is quickly dropped in grade having run well at Thirsk in an average Maiden and he should be watched in the market for signs of support. He could be better than this grade, as could Mandalay King. He is nicely bred and should go well. Liani is fairly exposed but whilst he is yet to win in eight starts, he has run some good races in defeat. Polish Priory is another who is dropped in grade and a stablemate of Liani, should be watched in the betting in relation to his stablemate. At a price Iamagrey could run well, however Ambrose Princess is the nomination.
