Verdict
The King's Steed escapes a penalty for winning an apprentices’ race at Nottingham though is racing from 3lb out of the weights in this tougher contest. YUKON is preferred on last month’s third in this grade at Musselburgh given he has lots of scope for further progress with a visor fitted for the first time. Flying Moon will be sharper for a recent comeback having ended last term with a hat-trick including a couple of course and distance wins but the remainder need to step up on recent efforts with Mac Ailey perhaps most likely to do so.
