ARCHIE’S ADVICE scored over a shorter trip here last month and can defy a 6lb rise in this company. Keith Dalgleish’s charge has won over 1m2f before but Muhaafiz is still looking for his first victory and was placed yet again when third on the all-weather at Newcastle a week ago. All You went close over 1m2f at Beverley just five days ago and can race off the same mark but Ellaal ran a shocker when favourite at the same meeting at Beverley having landed a double at Musselburgh before that.
