Musical Fair is a most consistent sort and can notch another win from her low draw, with Bahamian Belle and Mystery Pips likely to go well. Musical Fair overcame a bad draw when opening her account at Warwick in June and having caught the habit, went in again at Redcar the time before last, bouncing off the fast ground to prevail despite the drop back in trip. Back over six furlongs here a week ago, she carried a penalty and went off favourite but was very unlucky in running and went down by a head. She is well drawn here and can make amends. Alan Berry's stable have been out of sorts this term but one or two have shaped well, including Robwillcall, a winner at Musselburgh in June. Bahamian Belle is actually much better off with the selection on their Redcar running but remains hard to win with despite her attractive mark, and with that in mind we remain loyal to Musical Fair.
