It was a poor race that Anqood won at Chester last time and, although open to plenty of improvement, she looks to have plenty to do on her handicap debut so the vote goes to Amoras from the back to form yard of John Hills, who looks a better bet than Dowhatjen. The last mentioned has yet to prove that she stays a mile and, even on this sharp track, is not certain to do so. Prince's Passion has been given a chance by the handicapper but would not want any further rain, while Gracia has claims on her best but disappointed at Pontefract last time. Feather Boa and Tropical Coral are others to consider but Amoras looks the percentage call. The daughter of Hamas has ground conditions to suit, comes here fresher than most and, with her stable back in form now, is entitled to go close.
