Sayesse has changed stables since landing a claimer earlier this month and can go well again with his young rider's claim a real plus. Ballycaines finished a close second in a handicap the same day and as that was only his second start on the track he should go well again. EVERYHOURONTHEHOUR is progressing nicely and followed a narrow defeat on the track with a close victory over Red Avenger nine days later. He's up 4lb but can overcome the extra and complete a double though the runner-up should also be thereabouts as should third-placed Dark Magic. No Trouble has improved since stepping up to 1m2f so it's a surprise to see him dropping back in trip but Only The Brave ran her best race for a very long time on her track debut a fortnight ago and wouldn't need much more to get involved. Plum Perfect was unlucky-in running when beaten a short-head last time and also looks a threat.
