Musaaahim and Percy B Shelley both represent yards that do well in maidens here and in particular at this time of year. It is possible to pick holes in their form and there are more worthy alternatives. Heron and Chartbuster shaped well in the same Redcar maiden and should give good accounts once again, especially the former who hails from a yard in form. Chief Craftsman sets the standard but he looks vulnerable to an improver and, in that regard, HELF looks the answer. The Hannon colt only has to find 2L with Chief Craftsman having missed the break and looking in need of the run. The form of that race looks stronger than those contested by his other rivals.
