Angel In The Snow finished third over track and trip last month without troubling the winner but is preferred to Naupaka. The latter slides further down the weights while Palindrome is upped in class after placing at Beverley. Champagne Rules remains 5lb higher than when successful at Nottingham during the summer but LOZAH is back on a winning mark with an apprentice’s allowance further helping her cause. She went close the last time she raced over 1m2f and Roger Fell’s yard is in fine form.
