SWEET ANGEL has shaped better than the bare result on both her starts since joining this yard, ridden too aggressively at Bath last time, and she remains of interest off her basement mark. Vintage Polly took a big step back in the right direction when third over C&D 2 weeks ago and is another to consider, while the reliable Clotherholme can make his presence felt again.
