Written Broadcast gained his first victory on his 19th start at Musselburgh and Paul Hanagan takes the ride again. Shackabooah was running for the 16th time when scoring at Beverley but never got into contention at Yarmouth last week. Captain Corelli couldn't quite hold on over a mile at Haydock then found soft ground against him at Pontefract. Possible Ambition has been racing over 1m2f and may not have the pace for this while Retirement Beckons' Hamilton victory was at a lower grade. LITTLE TED is on a long losing run but has now dropped to his lowest ever mark and gets the nod in a tricky handicap.
