Verdict

ANGUS NEWZ won this race in 2008 and could do so again having made the most of a declining mark at Newmarket on Saturday. She has something to find on the figures but she's run well from considerably higher marks in the past and, crucially, relishes these conditions which may not be the case with principal rival Singeur. Singeur was only narrowly beaten over six furlongs on soft ground at this track on his reappearance but he has done almost all of his racing on a fast surface and there has to be sufficient doubt about his effectiveness under testing conditions to side with Mick Quinn's mare. Conditions could also be a problem for Star Rover but shouldn't hamper the chances of Abraham Lincoln and Red Avalanche with the latter feared most of the pair although his tendency to get behind in his races could be his undoing.
