The quartet with experience have all been placed with Musical Molly possibly the best of them following a highly promising debut at Doncaster where she managed to get squeezed for room in a six-runner race. Tanseeb will also come on for his run at Musselburgh while Exceed And Exceed may come out best of the Hannon newcomers as he's very speedily-bred and related to a host of winning sprinters. Parbold is a half-brother to three winners up to 7f so should have enough pace to make his presence felt while Charles Hills won this a year ago so Dream And Search is one to note. HUMOUR, a 100,000gns yearling, is the second foal of a winning mare who has already produced a winner so he's handed the vote in a race that should provide plenty of clues for the future.
