This ground will hold no fears for Call Out Loud given he won on similar going over a slightly shorter trip here nine days. But BLEU ASTRAL sluiced home over track and trip at the same meeting and can follow up under a penalty. Miss Ranger won a 'hands and heels' race by eight lengths at Hamilton last week and escapes a penalty so could also go well with Red Riverman preferred to Khajaaly of the older horses.
