Verdict

LUCKY MONEY looks likely to start a short-price for this and shouldn't disappoint. Sir Mark Prescott's colt posted a much better effort when fourth over today's trip at Redcar last time and further progress is expected. Today's rivals will need to step up on what they've shown so far to trouble the likely favourite and Producer may be the one most likely to do so after his debut fifth at Newbury. Courtesy Call wasn't unfancied for his first start at Musselburgh and can do better, but the remaining pair are hard to fancy.
