Donovan, Dominican Monk and Princess Aimee are three against the field in this novices handicap hurdle and the vote goes to the last named. The selection won well last time out when defeating Monsal Dale granted that was in a seller but she won in the style of an improver and she will be hard to beat off what looks a good mark. Donovan rates the main danger he also won well last time out when defeating Taipo Prince but he will find this harder under his penalty and he is passed over on this occasion. Dominican Monk is another that could go well he won well a couple of runs ago when defeating Precious Lucy but he appeared to struggle off this mark last time. Adjiram was a fair third behind Kalambari last time and he runs off the same mark here so he is another with definite place claims. Of the remainder Anna Walhaan has the ability to go close but does not always ordain to use it and for the winner we return to Princess Aimee.
