Verdict

ACCADEMIA left a good impression when scoring over 7f at Doncaster. Pulling readily clear in the final furlong, she strongly suggested this extra yardage would suit, and Ed Walker's filly looks one to keep on the right side of. Luminare improved for the step up in trip when second here last time. She could prove competitive once again off an unchanged mark, while Southwell runner-up Lightning Glory is also heading in the right direction.
