Verdict

FIRST ANGEL returned a beaten favourite once again when runner-up at Perth last summer. He returns from a lay-off but has stronger form than today‘s moderate opposition and may prove the one to side with. Marajman never threatened when placed at Southwell and drops down in trip along with Upagainstit and Hard Frost while You Say Nothing remains 11lb higher than when scoring at Sedgefield over a year ago.
