MUTAMAASIK (NAP) bids for a hat-trick on his handicap debut having defied a penalty at Chelmsford last time. The form looks solid enough with the runner-up Visionara winning earlier this week so Roger Varian’s charge gets the nod. Tenax posted a better effort over 6f at Carlisle recently and attempts 7f for the first time but Baba Ghanouj was due to run at Newbury yesterday. After John ran well at the track before disappointing at Newbury and is preferred to Nubough while Fashionesque could go well on her handicap debut.
