ALMOST AN ANGEL was an improved second after attracting support at Newcastle 41 days ago and is taken to go one better after a gelding operation now fitted with a visor. Impressions Dream and Fashion both represent good stables and are bred to be better than their opening mark, so they strike as potential threats.
