Southern Sapphire has a mountain to climb on official figures while Teetotal has run moderately in two starts this season. TATLISU started his career with a victory at Musselburgh so probably won't be too inconvenienced by the lack of a run since August and he performed with credit in much better company last season. He looks the one to be on as La Sylphe has never won on Turf and was beaten in a Leicester seller last time while Dream Vale appeared to thrive on the heavy ground at Redcar in October.
