Genuine speed with Lady Of Savoy taking up the running ahead of Harry's Yacht and Loves Affection. LADY OF SAVOY (5) resumes and has placed 5/7. Will be naturally improved and the in-form Dee rides. Uses the low barrier and rates the one to beat. Childs gets off the above and rides HARRY'S YACHT (7) who's needed his two race starts. This is easier than Sandown-Hillside and can improve into the finish. LOCH TAY (2) debuts with John Allen a positive jockey booking. Profiles well and keep an eye on the late betting moves. NOBLE LEGEND (3) has switched from a NSW barn and has been off the scene for 485 days. It's an ask but he's shown enough to be competitive. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Lady Of Savoy.
