Saucisson was well beaten over today’s trip before placing over 6f at Kempton but TICKET TO ALASKA placed over course and distance on only his second start in a handicap. Further progress is expected and he can confirm latest running with Regal Glory. Bernadine is another unexposed type worth a second glance while Skyblue Expert gets a change of headgear and will appreciate the return to today’s shorter trip.
