        Verdict

        SWEET MARMALADE finished runner-up over a shorter trip here last week on only her third outing for Brian Ellison’s yard. But she stays this far and can finally open her account off her current mark. Accessor went close over track and trip between poor efforts on the Polytrack and can figure back on this surface while Optima Petamus finished well ahead of Majestic Stone when scoring over course and distance last month and ran well again at Southwell recently when finishing in front of Queen Mia.
