Verdict

A race full of Musselburgh regulars (and previous winners), with the intriguing handicap debutante Mudawwan an obvious exception to the rule for Coverham handler James Bethell. However, the back in form Keith Dalgleish saddles a trio of runners and it is JACOB BLACK who rates as the selection. Classy in the past (winner off a mark of 88 in May 2015) he's been in the wilderness for Kenny Johnson until returning to this trainer with a flourish in 2018 and still feasibly very well handicapped drops back in trip today at the scene of his May victory.
