In depth

Verdict

COBRA KAI, headed on the line over this trip at Musselburgh, was staying on over Beverley's extended 7f last time and can get off the mark. Premiership had shown virtually nothing before beaten less than a length over 7f at Redcar and has been left on the same mark so looks a major threat. Ramamaras Boy showed his first sign of ability over the track and trip last time where he only faded in the closing stages and he had Selfish Brian behind, though the latter didn't get the run of the race.
