GYTO Friday Notebook Double

I’ll be at Sandown on Friday and it will be good to see HAND OF GOD in the flesh. He looked a really promising colt winning impressively at Newmarket on final start and with Ryan Moore booked for his handicap debut he could be one to follow this season. An opening mark of 88 looks lenient and I think this son of Churchill will take a lot of beating. Cogitate has fitness on side having finished runner-up at Southwell on return and could emerge as the danger. Royal Supremacy is another one to note having won 2 from 3 as a 2yo.

After catching the eye going down a length into third at Southwell ANGEL OF ANTRIM looked good winning readily at Newcastle last time. He is turned out quickly under a penalty but should still be the one to beat with Josephine Gordon in the saddle again. He seemed to enjoy racing more prominently last time so I’m hoping that will be the plan again as there are 2 or 3 that could go forward so he would get a lovely sit tucked in behind the speed. Barleybrown will likely be played late and I think he could be the biggest danger.
