PRINCESS BALLERINA (4) is a progressive filly who missed by just a nose on debut before posting an easy win here last time, pushing forward from this same barrier to lead before cruising home by close to 12m. Has upside so can go through her grades. PUPPETEER (3) looks close to a win following back-to-back seconds. Went back from a wider barrier here last start then worked home in good style. A lower draw gives him the chance to go one better. TAKE HIS PLACE (5) showed improvement to place here last week. Draws wider but should be at his peak for this. THE POTATO EATERS (7) draws wider than in the last-start win but placed from a similar barrier prior so include at odds.
