The ability of SNAP MUSIC to handle today's going has to be taken on trust but she should go close if doing so. She makes her handicap debut after a maiden win at Catterick and has lots of scope for further progress. Tectonic has been in decent form on fast ground this season but both Flipping and Save The Bees handle the underfoot conditions and the latter has tumbled down the handicap this year. The remainder are harder to fancy with Eilean Mor possibly the best of them.
