      Verdict

      Well beaten over today’s trip on his debut, Crimson Sand won here dropped down to 5f on his return to action and first start gelded. But ROSIE POWERS landed the odds with the minimum of fuss on her introduction when returning an easy winner over 6f at Wolverhampton and is taken to defy a penalty. Redheaded Stranger has plenty to find with the selection but Equality steps up in trip for his reappearance and makes more appeal given his yard has been among the winners lately.
