Ginger Ted is at his best under these conditions and will relish the slightly easier company, but two-year-olds have a history of dominating the contest and with that in mind the vote goes to MORACHE MUSIC. Peter Makin's charge ran well in the Two-Year-Old Trophy at Redcar last time having previously finished mid-division in a nursery off 88 and a repeat of either run would see him hard to beat. He's proven on ground with cut and this strong-travelling sort can cap a fine debut season. Red Roar is bang in-form but has plenty on her plate in this company, so of the remainder its Island Rhapsody who makes most appeal as he represents top connections and looked good when winning his maiden over this trip, although My Love Fajer isn't totally discounted.
