Musahaba has placed over track and trip on a couple of occasions since scoring over 7f here last month. Bronze River also won over 7f when successful at Redcar while Elixsoft won at Ayr when last in action in May. Award Dancer drops back down in trip on his debut for new connections having been gelded since leaving Ireland but MC’TED (NAP) makes most appeal. Beaten less than a length in a bunch finish at Kempton on his handicap debut, he‘s taken to open his account with any further improvement.
