Somespring Special failed to complete on her chasing debut having landed a double over hurdles earlier. Tom Creen has won four times over fences at Sedgefield with all of those wins coming on soft ground but FAZAYTE is preferred. The latter also scored over fences on the same track to complete a hat-trick over jumps and there looks more to come over the larger obstacles. Generous Day won this on soft going last year while Sageburg County was pulled-up at Warwick on his reappearance.
