In depth
Verdict
Mood Music, Supreme Speedster and Middleham may dominate this very competitive contest and a chance is taken that Supreme Speedster can maintain his trainer's sparkling form with his juveniles. Mark Johnston's Middleham showed only a little ability at Newcastle on his debut but stepped up on that when scoring with some authority at Carlisle. he was expected to score that day though in a weak affair, and he may find some of these too good. Mood Music chased home Alternative at Bath and then won at Hamilton, with the third Steelcut, who re-opposes here, scoring next time. Mood Music looks precocious and must go well. Kevin Ryan has had a terrific season with his two year olds and he saddles Supreme Speedster to represent him here. He made a winning debut over the course and distance, living up to his name, spreadeagling his field with a devastating turn of foot. Supreme Speedster can win at the Humberside track again.
