MY BEST BET acquitted herself well in a decent Kempton handicap and were she able to translate that ability to turf - she has claims at a big price in this event. Mujood represents a yard that are in fair form at present though he was poor at Brighton lately. Salient looks to be in the grip of the handicapper whilst Docofthebay needs big fields and a strong pace. Call To Reason is one to note in the market having taken a Newmarket maiden in some style. This will be only her third career start and on this occasion, she takes on battle hardened handicappers. Mustakmil won on his first two starts for Simon Dow having left Ed Dunlop and makes a belated return to action on turf.
