Verdict
A poor contest where KANGRINA is suggested to get the better of Moon Melody, Gallant Hero and She's No Muppet. The selection should be straight enough after two runs at Worcester in recent weeks which saw her improve from first run to second. This step up in trip looks a real positive for her chances and with the yard going quite well she is taken to score. Moon Melody is still 10lbs higher than when last winning and he has had plenty of opportunities since then, including from lower marks than that. He stays this far but has gone off the boil at the moment and is taken on. Gallant Hero acts well on fast ground and over this distance and despite being beaten from 3lbs lower last time he is likely to be very competitive. She's No Muppet would ideally want some rain and if the forecast is correct then she will probably get some and that can help her cause, although she has to prove she truly gets this far. London Times has become disappointing but may still have a say in this company, but Kangrina gets the vote.
