Verdict

EMPRESS PRINCESS shaped well when second on last month's Beverley debut and is taken to go one better now. American Psycho hasn't fully confirmed the promise of his opening second to Orthodox in 2 subsequent outings but is still the obvious danger unless the betting speaks in the favour of well-bred newcomer Kumharas.
