Verdict

Not a particularly strong Novice Stakes by Doncaster standards, and surely a race in which the majority can be confidently dismissed. Princely is the form horse following his Salisbury win and he should find the ground to his liking under his penalty. Missy Mischief cost a tidy sum as a yearling ($195,000), but she's been off the track for well in excess of 400 days since her run in the 2017 Queen Mary (Royal Ascot), so a chance is taken on the debutante FIELD GUN, who mightn't necessarily need to be firing on all cylinders in order to make a winning debut for William Haggas and Liam Jones.
