In depth
Verdict
ASKGARMOR’s second at Ayr off this mark was a step forward and a similar effort here may well suffice given the lack of credible opposition. Fame And Hope would have claims on the form she was showing around the turn of the year but she’s become disappointing. African Glory may be the pick of the remainder ahead of Atomic Angel and Espoir Moriviere.
