RAMAZAN wasn’t disgraced in the Britannia at Royal Ascot but will appreciate this return to 7f having placed in tough handicaps at York and the Curragh earlier. Chartwell House was allowed to make all here last month and returned an easy winner but has a 9lb hike to contend with. The drop down to 6f at Newcastle didn’t suit Mount Athos last time while Boardman is preferred to Gweedore back in a handicap but Safe Voyage is difficult to win with nowadays.
