Verdict
Conditional jockey James Bowen has made a flying start to his career and he can record a winner here on board Sam Curling's mare LONGHOUSE MUSIC . The selection ran a fair race on her penultimate outing and should appreciate this drop in trip having failed to stay at Sligo last time out. Pekanheim can put a disappointing effort at Hexham last time out behind him by notching his fourth placed effort since winning in March while top weight Brother Scott is taken to follow up two victories by finishing third here on his debut for this stable.
