      Verdict

      RIVERSWAY is compiling an impressive record, having landed four of her last seven for Julie Camacho. Value for more than her half-length success at Haydock last time, she remains of real interest off a 4lb higher mark. She's also the only course and distance winner in the line-up and can maintain her upward curve with conditions to suit. Pure Angel is a potent danger though for a yard now back in action after problems earlier in the season that were no fault of their own. The filly ran a really sound race in a hot York sprint latest and her previous runner-up effort at Goodwood also reads well. Sparkling Red has proved admirably consistent for Michael Dods and should pick up more prize money here and both recent winner Lotus Rose and the newcomer to Turf, Holy Fire, could also feature.
