MUCKY MOLLY had no chance against much higher rated rivals in a seller here last time and ran accordingly. However, she's quite capable of beating today's lesser lights as she won a handicap over track and trip on her penultimate start. Mataajir is a course and distance winner but out of form and Michael's Nook will need to step up on his previous efforts on this surface if he's to figure. San Jose City has gone close here in the distant past and may prove best of the remainder with a recent run at Kempton under his belt.
