Verdict

Best Kept made winning return dropped back to a mile at Nottingham and should go well again. But FUNDING DEFICIT scored over today's trip at Ayr by three lengths last time and Jim Goldie's charge is taken to go in again given the runner-up has won subsequently. Postscript is back on a winning mark with Jack Garritty's allowance taken into account but a 7lb rise proved beyond Southwell winner Showboating when third at Chester last month.
