This is a pretty weak claimer and Fiddles Music will not have to improve much to take first prize, Caspian Dusk and Regulated are put forward as the likely dangers. Mick Channon will be gearing up for the new turf season and so his string will be in top form and Fiddles Music should be fit enough after a six month break. She is certainly no stable star and contested a seller on the turf here last October, but she did show signs of ability, and against this weak opposition looks to hold strong claims. Caspian Dusk has the best recent form having chased home stable-mate Hold The Line at Southwell nine days ago and should prove to be the one to bustle up the selection. Regulated has to be forgiven his recent poor effort at Wolverhampton, but prior to that ran well at Southwell when runner up to Wings of Morning. Foot Fault takes a step down in class an may be best of the rest, but for the winner we return to Fiddles Music.
