      In depth

      Verdict

      Josiebond finished ahead of Don't Tell Dandy and Oxygenic at Ripon last month but that looks weaker form than Moojim’s second at Newcastle and DEEP INTRIGUE’s third at Bath. The latter started favourite on debut but didn’t get home in the heavy ground after showing good pace – he should be a different proposition here. Nicki's Angel is a 62,000gns daughter of Dark Angel so looks the pick of the newcomers ahead of Ahlan Bil Emarati.
