Verdict
Savoy Brown just held on for victory at Lingfield but Sir Joseph Swan was beaten less than a length in third and is fitted with blinkers today. Largo Bay and CAPRICORN PRINCE are other recent winners at Lingfield but the latter looks the more progressive having won three of his last four outings and Gary Moore’s charge gets the nod to go in again. Kalamity Kitty drops back down in trip on her reappearance having won over 1m6f at Ffos Las last summer.
