Saborido wasn't beaten far in a decent race on Polytrack last month but hasn't won on Turf since beating Sunny Future at Lingfield in 2012, though is only a pound worse off. Deauville Dancer sports headgear on his reappearance despite winning his last three starts in 2014. He may be high enough in the weights now but Filatore doesn't look badly treated having won over hurdles during the winter. The latter's stablemate ARTY CAMPBELL was well behind Deauville Dancer at Chepstow last year but was much improved when scoring under Jordan Williams on Tapeta last month and might take his revenge.
