ELUSIVE Prince appeals as capable of making his mark at a reasonable level outside of maiden company and should take the beating in the Ripon Farm Services Handicap at the North Yorkshire track.
Progressive in three runs last term and in the ever-capable hands of David Barron, he looked to have improved again when dotting up over this course and distance on his reappearance earlier this month.
Another to keep an eye on at Ripon is the once-smart Hogmaneigh as he has his first run for Mark Johnston in the Directors Cup from a mark some 5lb lower than when last seen in the Ayr Silver Cup in September.
Al Zir can regain the winning thread in Nottingham’s Bet On Live Cricket At totesport.com Conditions Stakes.
