Sewn Up finished ahead of Prigsnov Dancer when fourth here last week and also has the beating of Flow Chart on collateral form. Triple Aitch remains without a win despite sliding down the weights but Lord Buffhead scored over 5f here before finding Lucky Mark too good over track and trip. The latter has since been beaten at Southwell but Ivestar has won off a higher mark at this venue in the past. AVONDREAM finished behind a subsequent winner when third at Lingfield on his handicap debut and Milton Bradley's charge gets a token vote on that basis.
