Broadway Joe scored at Musselburgh last time though it may have been a tighter finish if the runner-up hadn’t made a hash of the last hurdle. STYLE NELSON fell in the same race when in the process of posting a better effort on his handicap debut. He re-opposes on better terms today and Rose Dobbin’s charge could be bang there at the finish with a clear round. Gallahers Cross was sent off odds-on in a first-time tongue-tie at Musselburgh on his reappearance but could only manage fourth and the headgear is left off today while Darksideoftarnside and Goldrapper are not baldy treated if putting recent poor efforts behind them and the same can be said of Big Bad Dream dropping back down in trip.
