In depth
Verdict
Sadafiya won her maiden over C&D before scoring over 5f at Lingfield on her handicap debut in September and, with her stable in such fine form, she has to come into the reckoning on her return to action. However, ACCLAMAZING enjoys a fitness advantage having won twice over 7f here this year. He beat a good yardstick in the consistent Amwell Pinot last time and this drop back in trip should be no problem as he has shown plenty of early pace. Tro Nesa could prove the best of the remaining trio with Restless Bay engaged to run at Leicester yesterday.
