Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Angel Of Promise
Angel Of Promise heads this 17-runner Dundalk mile on the all-weather on merit, rated narrowly ahead of Never Mind Me and a few pounds clear of the chasing pack that includes Roman Harry and Queen Leila, both of whom represent the chief threats on the night. Never Mind Me is the most likely to give our selection a race, but Angel Of Promise's superior rating reflects a consistency and quality edge that should prove telling over the standard surface. Angel Of Promise is the selection.
