In depth
Verdict
Batchelor Boy was a clear-cut winner at Wolverhampton but all three of his victories have come at that track. Spanish Angel improved again when a close third at Goodwood and has claims and Newyorkstateofmind did nothing wrong when runner-up at Kempton and has already placed over track and trip. LOVE POWERFUL (NAP) was easy to back over 6f at Leicester but stayed on strongly to score having been prominent throughout. She’s run well in both previous starts here and could prove hard to beat again. Clareyblue looks best of the rest.
