Sergeant Tibbs won this last year but that’s his only success so far in 17 starts while Chepstow winner Vape was well beaten at Windsor last time. Champagne Sarah failed to threaten at Newmarket but a couple of these make their handicap debuts including HYDRATION. The novice winner will be sharper for last month’s reappearance at Windsor and makes more appeal than Tajdif.
