Fine By Her won at Ludlow in the spring but hasn’t handled soft ground in the past. The going will hold no fears for BEAUFORT WEST, however, and Andy Irvine’s charge has slipped further down the ratings since a comeback run at Chepstow. He can reverse that form with Journey West. It‘s Maisy tries a new trip but Diamond Twin was second over course and distance three weeks ago and won’t be far away again despite a 3lb rise.
