Call Me Ginger is only 2lb higher than when the promoted 20/1 winner of this 12 months ago, despite having won his last two starts at Chester and Ascot. He’ll be a shorter price this year with Amie Waugh taking off 5lb again. Chipstead was first past the post last year though is 11lb higher but Hurricane Ivor won this in 2021 when on a 10lb higher mark. Now with Jessica Harrington, the latter could be interesting if recapturing his early season form as conditions won't be a problem. Makanah ran well over a similar trip at York but Vintage Clarets wasn’t far behind. The latter also finished close up at Ascot in July in the race won by The Big Board. Badri was a fast-finishing second that day with last week’s Haydock winner Raasel fourth and Existent fifth. KING’S LYNN had no luck in-running in sixth and the Royal runner is 3lb lower in the weights now. A Listed winner on soft ground here in 2021, he was poorly drawn in the Stewards’ Cup won by Aberama Gold at Goodwood last month. Recent Goodwood winner Live In The Moment, who shares bottom weight, has form on soft ground while Intrinsic Bond wins his fair share but is closely matched with Dream Composer, who was hampered leaving the stalls, on latest Ascot form.
