Verdict
Asiaaf finished closer over 1m2f at Sandown on her handicap debut than she did over 1m4f at Goodwood last time. Angel Power steps up in trip after placed efforts over a mile and stablemate Waliyak is weighted to reverse latest running with Chamade having finished second to the latter at Goodwood. Virgin Snow is fitted with headgear as she drops back down in class but is now 16lb higher than when scoring at Haydock in June and a chance is taken on FIRST KINGDOM. A dual winner over a mile, the latter wasn’t beaten far in Listed company over 1m2f in France on her latest start and the Haggas filly is fancied to run a big race now handicapping for the first time. Dalanijujo and Al Rasmah have something to prove in this grade.
