In depth

Verdict

Accessor was having his first start on this track when scoring over the distance last week and though carrying a penalty will make a bold bid to complete a double. Never A Word gained his only success in 38 starts over this course and distance early last month but has run poorly subsequently while Scrafton has been well beaten in sellers recently. COOL POSSIBILITY showed nothing over timber at the backend of last year but gained a surprise victory in a jumpers bumper at Newcastle on Friday and can complete a double. Adams Park was staying on strongly over 1m4f here on Thursday so looks certain to be suited by the extra.
