Verdict
Supermassive Muse, Atlantic Beach and Hazelrigg are the trio to look at here, with Supermassive Muse taken to get reward for some sound efforts in defeat. Hazelrigg created a favourable impression when scoring on his debut at Thirsk, but was well beaten when made favourite on a return visit to the track. He runs off the same mark here, and is probably best watched, though he clearly has ability and a market move should be heeded. Atlantic Beach came good after two promising efforts last time at Ripon, the first time he had encountered a sound surface. This fast ground may be to his liking and Atlantic Beach can go well again. A winner at Bath as a juvenile, Supermassive Muse has run well on both his starts to date this term, just touched off at Beverley last time. He ran well here last season on fast ground, and in a weakish contest, Supermassive Muse looks to have been found a winning opportunity, as he has been raised only a pound for that fine effort last time.
