Verdict
John Williams won at Hexham and Musselburgh in the autumn and was beaten under a length at the latter track last time. MUMGOS DEBUT can be a bit hit-and-miss but this looks his best chance for a while and his yard is in decent form at present – he could go close if in the mood. Las Tunas hasn’t really threatened this season but continues to slip down the weights. Halcyon Days remains out of sorts and Harleys Max might need this but Charlie Snow Angel is back on the same mark as when scoring at Newcastle in January.
