Sauvignon came good at Worcester three weeks ago but the headgear is left off today and he’s shown his best form on soft going. Final Reminder won at Ayr and Cartmel last month but another 9lb rise puts the hat-trick bid under pressure. SKEWIFF (NAP) was beaten by Drinks Interval at Ludlow back in October but she can take her revenge on better terms and over a trip which suits her better. Katy Royal has improved since stepped up in distance but Kayla may need this and Ten Trees has something to find on the form book. Cockley Beck was due to run at Uttoxeter last night.
