Ruth Carr holds a strong hand here with FREEDOM FLYER and Spanish Angel of particular interest. Both arrive on the back of recent wins, and while the latter has a very handy turf mark to exploit, the former is just preferred given the ease of his success at Thirsk (also third at Wolverhampton on Tuesday). Isle of Dreams is a threat if fully wound up for this.
