Verdict
Foxy Music makes a swift reappearance after running down the field at Carlisle on Wednesday but is starting to look well handicapped and could go well from a decent draw. Another C&D winner, Star Rover, is drawn wide however, as is The Nifty Fox who weakened quickly when looking to have a good chance at the weights at Ayr last Saturday. OLDJOESAID came with a rare rattle to snatch second place in that race and is only a couple of pounds higher here. He seems to be back to something approaching his best and should take all the beating. Lost In Paris won at Musselburgh earlier this month but, like Baby Strange and Lucky Numbers, is high enough in the weights now and Duchess Dora could be a bigger danger today.
