None of these inspire confidence and just a token vote goes the way of OFFBEAT SAFARIS. He's slipped down the weights and didn't fare too badly when fourth over track and trip last time. Mucky Molly scored here last year and posted a better effort on her latest start. She has a shout along with Heidi's Delight, third over track and trip last month. Red Shadow is a dual winner on the Polytrack and Moss Hill made the frame in a maiden race at Lingfield back in September.
