Verdict

The only recent winning form on offer is ALMUTAHAM's victory over hurdles at Kelso last month. He's yet to win in seven starts on the Flat, but at least arrives in good form, which is more than can be said of the majority of the field. A winner on Polytrack in 2009, Court Princess showed signs of a revival last time, while Orsippus was third over C&D last week but beaten 16 lengths with Dechiper even further back. Oh Landino was fancied at Ayr last week but ran a shocker and may be capable of better today.
