Verdict

This is tricky. Music Society has found it hard to get his head in front in recent seasons despite consistent efforts but his run at Haydock last weekend represented a bounce back to form. He's a sound claim if this doesn't come too soon. Yukon Mission and Good Earth both scored over course and distance last time and have conditions to suit, but both also take a significant rise in grade. Dark Shot is still a fair campaigner at nine but it's hard to predict when he's going to crop up and Water Of Leith has been contesting Class 6 company. In contrast, PROSPECT ran a cracker at Class 3 level last time and was a smooth scorer at Thirsk in April. He should go close.
