    Verdict

    Bowerman has won four of his six Polytrack starts and though he's never raced over this far he stayed on strongly to beat the odds-on No Needs Never over a mile three weeks ago. Kasperenko won a Kempton Listed contest for Brendan Powell in November 2018 but was well beaten at Royal Ascot in his only start last year. PRINCESS YAIZA makes a welcome return after a long absence. Twice a winner over 7f here, she landed a Group 2 at Longchamp over 1m4f in October 2018 and with race conditions in her favour she's taken to make a successful return. Shekiba has around 30lb to make up on official ratings.
