Verdict
Accomplice is penalised for winning over track and trip for the third time this year. She won with a bit to spare last week and is not out of this but AHDAB is expected to improve. The latter posted a better effort here on his first outing after being gelded and undergoing a wind operation and Ed Dunlop’s charge has plenty of scope for further progress. Giuseppe Cassioli is also unexposed and makes his handicap debut after placing at Kempton while 7f winner Qasbaz may do better today having encountered soft going at Haydock last time.
