      Verdict

      Musical Mystery offered a first glimmer of ability at Windsor but the bookies are always happy to lay unlucky losers at short odds so it could be worth siding with NAVY DRUMS instead. Franny Norton is a rare jockey booking for Robert Cowell and the Newmarket stable have sent out plenty of placed runners of late. Murbih steps up in distance having tried to make all over at Beverley while Pepsi Cat saw the value of her fifth at Bath appreciate considerably given the winner’s subsequent exploits at York last Saturday.
