Apprentice Benoit De La Sayette rode a winner for the Gosden yard earlier this month and takes 7lb off the back of Aureum. The latter placed at Kempton last month but is still conceding plenty of weight to the three-year-old SAVE A FOREST. Roger Varian’s filly steps up in trip but her full brother and stablemate Father Of Jazz included a course and distance success in a recent double and she can follow suit. New Exceed and Atacamena are both out of Listed winners representing powerful yards while Technique is another newcomer worthy of a second glance.
