In depth

Verdict

Musselburgh third Kie, who appears to have the beating of Stormin Exit, is a free-going sort so there will be no hanging about here as Stagecoach Pearl, who finished ahead of Imjoeking at Wetherby in December, also likes to force the pace. Jet Master was held up well off the pace when scoring easily here at the start of the month so should be suited if they go off quickly but UN GUET APENS looks better treated. He had stablemate Rockawango behind on worse terms at Carlisle last time and should be up to winning a race like this off his current mark.
