3.37 MUSSELBURGH
The key to the outcome of this race might turn out to be the C&D handicap fought out by MAGNA VICTOR and GEMINI MAN just before Christmas and they deserve to be played accordingly.
The former just came out of the protracted dual with the latter after the last at the Scottish venue and considering it was only the fifth run of his career; there is every reason to believe there could be more to come from Alastar Ralph’s gelding.
The other feature from that competitive handicap 40 days ago was the very useful speed figure for a race of its kind and, with the fourth and fifth both going on to score subsequently, a reasonable amount of confidence is behind one of the pair following suit.
MAGNA VICTOR – 1-point win@7-2
GEMINI MAN – 1/2 – point win@15-2
