Verdict
Course regular Princely Hero is not in the best of form and 8lb higher than his latest victory in September. ROSOFF finished a length behind runner-up Sablazo at Lingfield last month with Owner Occupier back in fifth. Laura Mongan's charge gets the vote to reverse running on better terms here on only his third start of the season. Join The Navy is flattered by his recent form figures as he's been well beaten at this track on his last three starts and a similar comment applies to Evella, never a threat despite being placed on a couple of occasions earlier this month.
