    Verdict

    PRINCE APOLLO's recent defeat on slow ground over a mile at Musselburgh can be safely ignored as he appears best over today's trip with his last two attempts over 1m2f resulting in victories. He's only 1lb higher than when scoring at Lingfield last month and this looks another good opportunity. Wily Fox won his maiden on the Polytrack over a longer trip and this is tougher than the race Lady Lam won at Kempton in November. Scorn was inconsistent last year but has a chance on her best form, while Rock With You may do better making her handicap debut today.
