      Verdict

      An ordinary opener that should rest between Princess Georgina and Stargazy, and we take the the former to score. Stuart Williams' filly has been the most consistent of these in three starts to date, and was by no means disgraced to finish four lengths adrift when ninth of 11 in a Listed contest over 6f at Newmarket earlier in the month. That repesents the best piece of form on offer here and she handles fast ground, so we will side with her. Stargazy won't be far away however. Roger Charlton's colt improved plenty last time to finish runner-up over the minimum trip at Windsor and and reproduction of that effort here should make him very competitive. The other two with experience have shown little so far, and debutante Distant Flash may prove better, but we are happy to side with Princess Georgina to score.
