A competitive sprint with the undefeated Harry Three returning to action having landed a double at Kempton. He looks sure to go close on his handicap debut but FEARLESS ANGEL beat a subsequent winner over the minimum trip at Wolverhampton on her reappearance and with this extra distance looking sure to suit, David Loughnane’s filly can come out best. Apache Star and Kodias Sangarius are other novice winners at Wolverhampton with the former less exposed while Spring Is Sprung has his first start since struggling in the Listed Windsor Castle at Ascot last summer.
