Verdict
Third Time Lucky bids for a four-timer and given there looks more to come from Richard Fahey's charge after his latest win at Musselburgh, he has to come into the reckoning. But a chance is taken on the filly MUFFRI'HA on these terms as she found only Spangled too good in a Class 2 handicap at Newmarket last week and can go one better. Pretty Bubbles had looked in the grip of the handicapper before bolting up at Newbury and Take A Note has a shout on his earlier third at Goodwood. Maverik and Starboard have no easy task at the weights and others are preferred.
