Call Me Ginger is a pound lower than when landing this 12 months ago. He won the Portland at Doncaster later on soft going so a repeat is not out of the question with stablemate Rock Melody also holding decent claims from the foot of the weights.

Kimngrace has her sights lowered and Rhythm N Hooves is an improving three-year-old, though has no form on going this testing. THE BIG BOARD is proven in the conditions and has come on in leaps and bounds since well behind Archie Watson’s gelding here last month when poorly drawn.
