Verdict
Dubai Leader won a lower grade contest back on fast going at Beverley but SAVVY KNIGHT (NAP) scored in this grade over track and trip last month. He beat the re-opposing pair Neandra and Moving Light in the process and Sean Woods’ charge should make another bold bid. Saratoga Gold placed at Newmarket before unseating at York while better is expected from Protected Guest back on this surface.
