This should be a straightforward task for Princess Ismene with Bunino Ven and Fiddles Music the most likely to chase our selection home. The filly from the Paul Blockley yard has been running well on the all-weather over the winter and she looks a cut above her rivals in this moderate affair. She is the clear form pick and it would be a surprise if she were to get turned over. Fiddlers Music rates the main danger as she showed a modicum of ability on her debut at Lingfield before disappointing last time out. She is stepped up in trip here and looks the one for the forecast. Bunino Ven hails from a shrewd yard and he showed improved form last time when beaten by Regulated at Lingfield over this trip. However, that form is still well short of what our selection has shown, and although the odds may be cramped, it is difficult to get away from the claims of Princess Ismene.
