Karingreason is proving expensive to follow and is 2lb higher than when a beaten favourite at Southwell last month. Home She Goes got off the mark at Uttoxeter last month, however, and should make her presence felt again. But there is almost certainly more to come from EASTERN SUPREME, who comes from the same family of useful Irish chaser Saxophone. Kim Bailey's gelding was well backed on his chasing debut at Folkestone and the extra half-mile here should suit.
