In depth

Verdict

Mr Dandy Man couldn't match the pace of Peterkin at Doncaster and the winner's trainer is represented by the newcomer CENTRALITY, a half-brother to a 6f two-year-old winner for who Kieren Fallon is a positive booking. He could be good enough in this low quality event in which Hedge End is likely to show considerable benefit from her opening run at Kempton. Sherry For Nanny was well beaten in a Warwick seller so Heavens Edge, a speedily-bred daughter of Royal Applause, is one to keep an eye on.
