Sauvignon looked sure to win when taking a tumble at Southwell in December but hasn’t been seen since. Dalkadam has won off a higher mark but has been chasing lately. Bermeo and Tir Dubh are both previous course and distance winners and Good Man Hughie would have a chance on his best form but ANNDARROW was much improved after a break at Taunton last month and should make a bold bid to defy a 5lb rise in the weights with Richard Johnson again doing the steering.
