SAWPIT SIENNA (NAP) was 6lb lower when justifying favouritism in this last year but a repeat may be on the cards following an identical preparation, though Malina Jamila would threaten if rediscovering her best form and Sinurita has placed a couple of times this year. Crem Fresh has shown enough to suggest she could win a race like this and Our Nel makes her handicap debut having run just twice so far over hurdles with Ben Bromley’s claim a plus.
