Verdict

The consistent Mountain Angel is much-respected having run another excellent race last time at Yarmouth to finish second off this mark. He does however have a tendency for filling that placing and might well find himself booked for minor money again. KRYPTOS just failed under a penalty at Salisbury last time out and makes significant appeal now reunited with Nicola Currie for this race, as she takes 7lb off and steered him home at Chester in July. The third (easily) and fourth from that Salisbury race were next-time-out winners, ensuring the form now reads very strongly. The returning Mushaireb is thoroughly unexposed and worth monitoring while Andok could take a step forward having been gelded since a tame C&D run in July.
