Mister Musicmaster¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: David Probert| T: R J Hodges| OR: 62| C

10/1

Ten time winner but well held over a mile here last time. Goes up in trip today and down 5lb but needs to do plenty more.

Mamnoon^b²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: E J Walsh⁽³⁾| T: R Brotherton| OR: 49| CD

7/2

Seems to show a liking for this place having run well and won here in the past. Bounced back to form with a close up third here over a mile last time. Step up in trip no problem and likely to go well once more.

Form: 004-393

Final Rock^p⁸^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 50| D

2/11

Stayed on strongly upped to this trip for the first time at Chepstow last week and won very comfortably. Value for much more than the 6lb rise and likely to be very hard to beat once more.

Vexillum⁴⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 8-13| J: Hollie Doyle| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 45WS

33/1

Recent flat form leaves him with something to fin even at this level. Not much better over hurdles of late and may well struggle once more.

33/1

Unplaced on each of her 10 starts including here over C&D on her most recent start. Find it hard to see her troubling Final Rock.

Forecasts

Final Rock (2/11), Mamnoon (7/2), Austin Friars (8/1), Mister Musicmaster (10/1), Polkadot Princess (33/1), Vexillum (33/1)

Mamnoon goes well here and should give it another good go. Clear preference though is for FINAL ROCK who stayed on strongly upped to this trip last time and clearly has plenty of improvement in the locker.
