Sweet Angelica would go close with a repeat of her earlier third at Nottingham. But she was tailed off on her latest outing at Kempton and COISTE BODHAR is preferred. The latter finished runner-up over today's trip at the same track last week and can go one better in what looks a weak maiden. Captain Gee may prove best of the remainder with neither of the newcomers making much appeal on breeding.
