In depth
Verdict
Arnoul Of Metz had been threatening before a modest effort at Chepstow last time when finishing behind runner-up Aquadabra. The latter has since ran well again at the latter track while Always Amazing can figure back on the all-weather and finished in front of Avon Green when placed at Chelmsford earlier in the year. But ANGEL EYES has found one too good over the minimum trip the last twice now and finally looks set to open her account on the back of finishing second at Musselburgh.
