Verdict

AZURE ANGEL is highly progressive and had something to spare when getting the better of another improving sort at Newcastle last time, so she boasts excellent claims once more. Ferrous and Knebworth also arrive on the back of career-best, winning efforts, so they could well trouble the selection.
