      Verdict

      ANNAF drops down in trip having shown plenty of early pace in both starts over 6f. He won here on his debut and found only Kaboo, rated 95, too good in a conditions race at Kempton last time. Ionian Sea is also penalised having made a winning debut at Beverley last summer but has his first outing since while No Guts No Glory went close at Southwell on his recent introduction but this is tougher. Shades Of Summer is worth a second glance as a sister to a winner and a half-sister to others.
