Trinity River was out of her depth in a Listed race at Newbury last time but would have a chance here if able to reproduce her form on the all-weather. Morning Post was also highly tried at York on his latest start while the consistent Mr Matthews has been raised a further 2lb since his latest fifth at Ascot. MUSICAL COMEDY won a Windsor maiden by six lengths and, though he has a lot more on his plate here, is still improving and could double his tally. Belayer made no impression on his nursery debut at Goodwood and the others all look pretty much exposed.
