ON THE HIGH TOPS found the soft ground against him at Catterick last time but had scored at the same track before that with Mr Mo Jo, Middleton Flyer and Ballarina all behind. That form gives him the beating of Ypres and Ruth Carr's charge gets the vote. Holy Angel seems best at Beverley and has gone up another 4lb for finishing second at that course on his latest start. Pivotal Prospect scored over C&D in May and could figure while stablemate Mission Impossible has won twice at this track and will have come on for his recent return to action.
