Disarming returned a surprise 50/1 winner when catching Dusty Damsel in the closing stages at Chelmsford last month. But that pair are hard to separate with the latter re-opposing on better terms and SAVITAR gets the nod. He returned from a lay-off with a second over course and distance and with the usual headgear back in place for this, may prove good enough. Trepidation and Air Of York have both won classified races this year but will find this tougher.
