In depth

Verdict

Last week’s Brighton winner Sarmadee was only fourth over 7f here before that and is 2lb higher today. Wordismybond won over a longer trip under today’s apprentice at Epsom in July while Red Unico has been placed at Wolverhampton recently but has just the one win in 29 starts. Limerick Lord was beaten over three lengths over track and trip last month but TWO IN THE PINK was beaten less than a length over 7f on the Polytrack here earlier this year. She gets the nod racing off a 4lb lower mark today.
