Verdict

PRINCESS CHLOE improved when runner-up on her turf debut at Limerick a fortnight ago and is taken to go one better in a weak handicap. Pocket Jacks shaped well over this C&D last month and rates the main danger, with Liamo and Dawn Flame also respected if able to show their best.

3	Showed improved form when 1¼ lengths second of 14 to Glen Breeze in handicap at Limerick a fortnight ago. Up 3 lb for that performance but will be firmly in the mix if able to replicate it in what looks a weak race, particularly with a good-value 7 lb claimer booked. 1st Pick 3 Princess Chloe (Ire) Jockey: T.
