Verdict

Amal returns to a mile after scoring over 7f at Salisbury while Spirituoso won over the latter trip at Kempton. Mind That Jet placed over 7f last time and debuts on the all-weather but Bonnie Lad won over track and trip back in March and is only 2lb higher. SHADOW ANGEL (NAP) is another upped in distance on the back of a much-improved effort here on her handicap debut. Her dam won over a mile and Joseph Tuite’s filly is taken to follow suit with further progress on the cards.
