Verdict
SAGAUTEUR makes most appeal of these over today’s trip. The latter followed an earlier success on the all-weather with a victory at York and another bold bid is expected. Light Up Our Stars’ earlier treble came over shorter distance on the all-weather but Urban Violet went close when runner-up over a mile at Yarmouth. Curtiz completed a double over the latter trip here last autumn while Hyanna moves in the opposite direction and drops down in distance looking to end a long losing run.
