Musical Romance⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: W Buick| T: Tom Clover

Forecasts

Musical Romance (7/4), Foursome (3/1), Lyrical Lady (4/1), Three Diamonds (15/2), Awesome Dancer (10/1), Conquering (20/1), Schilthorn (20/1), Timesoftheessence (20/1), Cable Mountain (33/1)

LYRICAL LADY holds the clear edge on form having returned with an excellent Nottingham handicap second and can open her account back in novice company. Foursome made an encouraging start when sixth in a 1m maiden at the same track earlier in the month and rates a big threat with a fair bit of improvement in the pipeline. Musical Romance is another with the form to play a part.
