Verdict
Modest fare and a chance is taken with the lightly-raced MUCKY MOLLY on her handicap bow for the Olivia Maylam team. She looks open to improvement after respectable efforts in maiden company, albeit at a lowly level, and doesn't look at all badly treated for this handicap bow. She's worth a chance in an open heat. Richard Hughes has been snapped up for Flaxen Lake but the ground is a real concern and stable companion, Dancing Welcome, solid if exposed, makes more appeal under the promising Lucy Barry. Keep an eye on the market for any move for Poyle Todream. He's showing nothing in three maiden runs but Ralph Beckett steps him down in trip for this handicap introduction and he wouldn't have to improve much to feature.
