In depth

Verdict

Quickstep Lady has placed in both starts on the all-weather this year though it was soft going when she won at Goodwood last term. Angel Of The Glen went close at Newcastle on her return and won twice over 7f at Thirsk last season beating GALE FORCE MAYA on one of those occasions. But the latter re-opposes on more favourable terms today and, with a recent outing under her belt, Michael Dods’ mare is taken to turn the tables and get her head back in front. Arabic Charm is not badly treated on last year’s placed efforts and the Godolphin filly could go well on her return.
