Verdict

Without a win in 15 starts, Ledbury has switched yards since last in action in 2017. Sixties Secret and SEA’S ARIA have both won over hurdles but the former hasn’t raced since October and was well beaten on the last couple of occasions she raced on the Flat. The top weight is just preferred as this looks easier than his recent tasks and he finished closer at Chelmsford on his latest start.
