NEW YEAR'S NIGHT was a massive disappointment when odds-on at Kempton last week and obviously needs treating with a degree of caution now. But maybe he resented the headgear, which is absent today, and this is such a weak race that could probably afford to run well below his best again and still get off the mark. Mustafiz wasn't entirely disgraced on his debut three weeks ago and finished ahead of Roxy Madam so maybe the one to chase home the selection.
