    Verdict

    Creek Harbour won a maiden over track and trip in December but left Richard Hughes’ stable after getting back to winning ways in a seller at Lingfield last month. Grey Destiny seeks a sixth victory on the track but is not favoured by the terms in this. MISTER MUSIC is the clear top-rated and the switch back to Tapeta should suit after three runs on Fibresand – Elisha Whittington is good value for a 7lb claim in a race like this. Dark Confidant and Motajaasid should be best of the rest according to the handicapper.
