This lot have had 375 runs under Rules between them and managed the grand sum of 13 wins. It's fair to say you need to tread carefully here. The very fact that LONGHOUSE MUSIC hasn't had many chances yet is reason enough to be interested in her, and this big step up in trip is likely to show her in a much better light. It would be no surprise if she improved to take this modest contest. The race for the places looks wide open - take your pick from top weight Free Of Charge, veteran Drop Anchor, Shanklys Dawn (who may yet improve) and Killeen Elegance.
