Sarah Jessica moved stables and was sent to Ffos Las a couple of weeks ago and duly obliged. There should be some more improvement though this looks tougher. Her former trainer saddles LUMINENT, who signalled an imminent victory when a close fifth at Leopardstown then battled back to concede today's rival Hidden Spark 11lb at Gowran. He hasn't been unduly punished with a 3lb rise and can complete a double. Kudbegood has never won in 15 starts and is closely matched with Acari, who beat him a couple of lengths over the track and trip in August. Caesar's Comet is generally consistent but rarely runs over a trip this far.
