Verdict
Cayuga ran well again when third at Lingfield earlier this month, finishing ahead of both Sheila's Buddy and PERFECT CRACKER (NAP). But that was the latter's first run since September and, with Ryan Tate's 3lb claim further helping his cause, Clive Cox' charge is taken to turn the tables in this. The lightly-raced Vivat Rex is not out of this either on last month's third over track and trip but maiden winner Salmon Sushi disappointed on his handicap debut at Kempton. Mia's Boy usually gives of his best but that is rarely good enough nowadays.
