Angel Amadea shaped well in a hot race on debut and, while she failed to land the odds on the all-weather at Lingfield recently, this track will probably prove more suitable. She appeared to be caught out by a steady gallop at a sharp track, so she is given another chance to build on the considerable promise of her Newmarket run in June.
Malhoob didn't need to improve when making all to get off the mark at Thirsk in April but shaped as if amiss last time over a mile and a quarter at Newcastle. He isn't bred to stay that far, so he's well worth another chance to get back on the up back at a mile and following a gelding operation. He can prove too strong for Mars Landing, who continues to shape like he has a bigger effort in his locker.
The way Raqisa asserted late on upped to this trip at Thirsk 17 days ago was pleasing and, with the strong possibility of better to come from this lightly-raced filly, she is taken to follow up at a distance she remains unexposed at.
