Race preview

TAHITIAN PRINCE did just about everything wrong in the early stages on his reappearance at Doncaster, being awkward leaving the stalls, but he travelled like a quality operator throughout and got up late on over 7f. The step up to a mile might help him defy a 7lb higher mark. Accomplice carries a 4lb penalty for her win over this track and trip and could be a player again, while Billhilly struck on his first start for Charlie Fellowes at Nottingham and appeared to relish the drop to this sort of trip. Princesse Animale is a model of consistency at this track and is another to note.
