Porchy Party ran poorly here in between good efforts at Chester and jockey bookings suggest stablemate Ginbar is preferred. The latter won over track and trip last year but Bahuta Acha has done his winning over 5f so far. Shaheen and Equitant will both be sharper for recent comebacks and are not out of this while Kalagia should be thereabouts with a repeat of her recent second at Hamilton. But it could pay to stick with BEYOND EQUAL despite the 6lb extra given Stuart Kittow’s charge won by a wide-margin over 6f at Salisbury last week and there looks more to come.
