      Verdict

      Lilbourne Prince went within a nose of winning at Wolverhampton on Boxing Day with previous winner Ritasun well beaten. He has every chance in this lower grade and is preferred to maiden race winners With Pleasure and Ice Royal. The latter has been beaten in a couple of handicaps of late while AUTUMN BLOSSOM ran a shocker at Kempton on her handicap bow. But it's too soon to write her off yet especially as she won on her racecourse debut here last month and Mark Johnston's filly gets another chance.
