Prince Jai has taken time to gain the winning habit but arrives here on a hat-trick under this young pilot. If as effective here as he has proven at Chelmsford then he would be the one to beat. On this occasion he faces competition for the lead and a real threat in the shape of course specialist MAGIC MIRROR. The filly can attack from the front or from behind off a strong pace and she looks set to bounce back from a poor run on heavy ground last time. Knight Of The Air catches the eye back over this trip with Oisin Murphy on board.
