SAWPIT SUPREME would probably have finished ahead of Carrig An Uisce at Hereford earlier this month had she not fallen two out. With a clear round, she could well recoup losses in this as there isn't much to choose between Bohemian Rock and Phar Again on their recent run together over 2m here. Both will appreciate the step up in trip while Pensnett Bay is open to further improvement and makes more appeal than the one-paced Billy Murphy. Junior Jack is probably best watched returning from a break.
