PORT ERIN looked ahead of the handicapper when returning a convincing winner at Newcastle and can shrug off a penalty in this as Coral Reef failed to trouble the winner when second at Chepstow while Larrsen remains 5lb higher than when winning at Bath earlier. Sprezzatura has yet to win but has recently switched yards and may improve for the change of scenery.
