Verdict
Stage Acclaim did well sent over fences on the second half of last year with one win and five places from eight starts. Thus, it was a little surprising to him reappear in a seller here last Sunday when unseating in the race won by Westlin' Winds. Connections clearly want to strike at present and presumably all is well with him. However, SEEDLESS, a daughter of Mtoto, looks a better option for the McCain team. She's been competing in far better company than this selling grade and two of her three wins have come at this trip. Reaction landed a 10f Lingfield seller after a two-year absence last month and it will be interesting to see how the market rates the chances of the West inmate after that success.
