Verdict
FIRST PRINCIPLE created an excellent impression when going in on his debut at Kempton in December and can make light of his absence to defy a penalty here. Wolverhampton runner-up Summer Heat appeals as the one to chase home William Haggas' son of Kingman ahead of Arf's Duchess and Jubilee Party.
