Verdict

A weak-looking maiden which looks to be a prime opportunity for ROYAL HIGHNESS to get off the mark at the second attempt. The filly would have been closer or an impressive winner on debut and given the ideal draw, she is expected to be more streetwise for this contest. Zaamar has a similar profile to the preference and showed an aptitude for the course on his latest start and is expected to challenge once again, while the consistent duo of Silk Forest and Merricourt have strong form ties but must contend with lengthy absences.
