Verdict

Azlaa had Oliver's Gold behind when only beaten half-a-length over this distance at Lingfield last month but there may not be much to choose between the pair at the revised weights here. Imaginary World won a Wolverhampton claimer before finishing second in a minor contest at Southwell but looks plenty high enough in the weights now and more interesting is Suddenly Susan. The Acclamation filly is already with her third trainer but it will be a surprise if current connections can't find a race for her this winter. The selection, however, is ANGELIC UPSTART, who finished strongly to collar the well-backed Lord Of Persia at Wolverhampton last month and should be even better over this extra furlong.
