Verdict
Hot Team took advantage of a slide down the ratings to score here last month but has never raced over a trip this far. Euro Implosion has no problems with the trip but is very much a soft-ground specialist so could do with plenty of rain. Jupiter Road hasn't proved himself over this far so a chance is taken on TANQEEB. From a yard in top form he didn't perform well at Wolverhampton last time but his earlier run at Leicester put him right in the picture. Flood Defence completed a Musselburgh double around this time a year ago and is back on the same mark as his last victory.
