        Verdict

        Salisbury fourth Golden Passport is a likely improver but Penny Ghent may do better in handicaps. KITAI’s two second places at Haydock looks strong form and she should make it third-time lucky here unless Karl Burke’s newcomer Banquo, whose half-sister won over 7f on debut, proves to be above average.
