      Verdict

      Showbizzy, the only three-year-old in this, was placed at Nottingham last year but subsequent efforts left a lot to be desired. Quantum Dot has looked well treated for a while but is struggling to get involved. Racing Angel is back on a winning mark but has proved inconsistent so far this year. BRONZE BEAU is usually well backed when winning so a market check is advised but his latest second at Beverley suggests he's ready to strike again. Angel Way is back in the right grade but hasn't won since 2013.
