In depth

Verdict

NO MORE THRILLS won over 7f at Chelmsford on her return to action. The drop back in trip should not be too much of an inconvenience with an apprentice’s allowance reducing a penalty. Wide Acclaim was placed at Wolverhampton on her debut and she’s preferred to Downtown Mombasa, who went backwards last time having gone close on her earlier debut. Dolly Mixture drops down from a mile but the 150,000gns newcomer Intense Pleasure is worth noting for any strong support.
