WITH THE ANGELS (1) is a talented type yet to taste defeat after three runs, the latest over 1m at Listed level at this track (Dirt). Winning rider aboard again and expected to go close. STONE SMUGGLER (7) broke through for her maiden win over 5½f in Listed grade at Finger Lakes (Dirt) last time, scoring comfortably. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and she is worth including. VALTELLINA (4) comes here off a last-start fifth, beaten 19 lengths, over 1m at this track. One of the main contenders. BELLACOSE (5) resumes after a break of 11 weeks. Did win at her only other when resuming run when on debut, scoring over 5½f at Saratoga. Makes plenty of appeal.
