In depth

Verdict

Accrington Stanley posted a much better effort when runner-up over the minimum trip here last time but has a stack to find at the weights with VEDUTE on these terms. Rated 84, the latter may have bumped into a potentially smart horse when failing to land the odds at Chepstow but went close at Haydock before that and should have the measure of both Grey Sparkle and Priti Agrippa on that form. Ladywood is related to a host of winners including Bow Creek, who won a Group 2 for Mark Johnston’s yard, and the 67,000gns purchase is a newcomer to note.
