CITY SELECTIONS ALEXA’S PRINCESS has been campaigned exclusively over 5f so far and could relish this extra two furlongs. The Karl Burke-trained filly outran her odds when finishing fourth at Ripon last month and an opening mark of 65 looks workable. Richard Hannon is represented by Swear and Jilted, with marginal preference for the former who has shown slightly more. Princess Naomi produced her best run to date when third at Chepstow and isn’t dismissed lightly. ALEXA’S PRINCESS
