Pundit pick: Be An AngelDiffers from our pick

Be An Angel is our selection at Brighton, and a progressive profile is enough to prefer her narrowly over Honour Your Dreams, who is rated just a pound better on our figures. She sits level with Harry Mole on 58, so the margin between them is very fine, but her upward trajectory gives her the edge in a modest Class 6 sprint on good ground. Honour Your Dreams is the chief danger as the top-rated runner, while Harry Mole and Bated Breeze, three pounds behind our pick, also have to be respected. This looks an open contest, yet Be An Angel is the one to side with.
