Verdict

Cheers For Thea and Al Mayasah could get involved on their best efforts of last year but Bavarian Princess has the more recent form. A penalty for last week's success here is negated by an apprentice's claim and she should be in the firing-line once again and confirm running with Fenella Fudge. DANCE COMPANY also carries a penalty for her latest win at Lingfield where she just got the better of Subtle Knife with Bint Alzain well beaten. The runner-up re-opposes on better terms but a faster pace is expected today and Bill Knight's filly can follow-up. Flashbang scored over 6f at Kempton last month but has something to prove over this extra furlong.
