Violoniste had the misfortune to bump into a rapidly improving sort in Silver Streak at Musselburgh last month, and looks a real contender in this race with ground conditions to suit. Applaus looks the pick of the novices (younger horses), but this drying ground might not play to his stamina strengths. However, NUTS WELL is the horse the others all have to beat. Despite shouldering top-weight, he's yet to run a bad race in four spins at this track (1,1,2,2) and he's been at the peak of his form over this C&D the past twice (from this mark), and should find this ground adequate (well watered) in a slightly weaker race today.
