In depth
Verdict
Muatadel was narrowly beaten into third behind Lagenda here in September and can gain revenge on 5lb better terms. Lucky Violet completed a track and trip double though that was in 2018 and she's done little subsequently. Dancing Speed is 0-14 and not dropping in the ratings while TARNHELM has a 5lb penalty for a battling victory under Rhona Pindar at Thirsk last week. The latter, however, can complete a quick double. Joyful Star is held on that run but Jack Randall won a better handicap than this at Haydock in August though has changed stables and could just need the run after a long absence.
