Saxagogo is upped 7lb after winning over the minimum trip at Newcastle while Mesmeric Moment’s earlier success came in a plating race on soft ground. ROYS DREAM is preferred as she faced a much tougher task at Doncaster when only fifth on her handicap bow and can finish a lot closer in this company. Coverham is usually thereabouts without being good enough but Rebel Heart could go well for Bill Turner now handicapping for the first time after a second at Brighton. Luv U Always was a beaten favourite in a Wolverhampton seller on Friday.
