It’s difficult to make a strong case for any of these with a speculative vote going to SHAMAHEART who has plummeted down the weights. Silvestre De Sousa’s presence suggests a better effort is expected today. Arrowzone hasn’t won on Turf for some time but scored twice at Wolverhampton at the end of last year while Mrs Angel is one of the least exposed and went close at Thirsk on her penultimate start. Chiswick Bey is another looking to exploit a slide down the weights and is preferred to Suitsus and Captain Sedgwick.
