There’s a chance here that with the stalls on the stands side that a high draw could be favoured and there are a few amongst the high numbers that have been knocking at the door of late. KENNY THE CAPTAIN would be one of those and his last two starts have shown that he’s nearly ready to strike. Muscika can’t be left out of the mix as he looks the most progressive of the three-year-olds and his form ties in closely with Tatlisu who is no stranger to success over this C&D. Others to take a look at would be Duke Cosimo along with the Dalgleish pair Glengarry and Dark Defender who won on this card last year.
