Verdict

MUSNAD arrives in good form having gained his first success on his 17th start when coming with a late burst to catch Oriental Scot at Musselburgh. A good run from the runner-up earlier in the day will boost his prospects and he's handed the vote. Alfred Hutchinson was having just his 5th start when scoring over a mile here on fast ground last month with Aquarian Spirit behind and there's more to come from him, while Jonny Lesters Hair is just 3lb higher than when scoring at Ripon in September and looks ready to win again soon. Rustic Deacon made a promising reappearance at Kempton after a long break and Kieren Fallon is a very positive booking though Willie Musson's charge has yet to prove himself on soft ground. Whitby Jet is running well enough, though may be a few pounds high, and though Jo'Burg likes it here he prefers faster going.
