FormscanBy Alan Magee - Sioux Princess handles this surface well winning twice over course and distance and last time beat MAURA’S GIFT in an apprentice handicap. Paul Flynn’s charge may now reverse those places at these revised terms and looks fairly treated having won here off a 4lb higher mark just over a year ago. Riyami relished the step up to two miles when scoring in great style here last week and an 8lb hike in the ratings is greatly alleviated by Calum Hogan’s claim. Nawraq showed much improved form at his first attempt on this surface when beating all bar the gambled-on Rhythm And Thyne over an extended ten furlongs last month. The form of that race has worked out well since although this longer trip is a concern, while the Keith Clarke-trained pair Limited Edition and Tenth Amendment are others to consider.
