A competitive contest gets proceedings under way with many in form rivals in opposition including Musally, Binny Bay and Mister Moss and we will take a chance on Musally. The six year old has been in fair form of late and a reproduction of his latest second behind Compton Chick would make him hard to beat with conditions again in his favour. Binny Bay rates the main danger he won well at Perth then was a good fourth behind Sunday Rain last time out. The booking of Richard Johnson catches the eye and he has definite place claims. Mister Moss was a fair sort in the point to point field and he is sure to improve on his latest effort under rules with the step up in trip sure to be in his favour. Of the remainder Kaid and Pack Leader are from shrewd yards and are worth noting in the market but we are happy to side with Musally.
