Start Right can lower colours of Nationalism

START Right can prove the fly in the ointment for stablemate Nationalism in the totesport.com Cambridgeshire at Newmarket.

All eyes will be hot favourite Nationalism, who has been massively well supported at the head of the market, but he is a short-price in such a big field, and Luca Cumani's runner, who has Kieren Fallon in the saddle, appeals as a strong each-way alternative. Nationalism's jockey William Buick said: "He's a pretty short price for a race like this. He's a nice horse who goes in with an ideal profile and has done nothing wrong."

Music Show can earlier do the business in the Kingdom of Bahrain Sun Chariot Stakes. Mick Channon's filly has been carelessly under-rated this term, but gladly claimed the Group 1 scalp her efforts have merited in the Falmouth at the July course.

The new Kelso season kicks off tomorrow with the Family Fun Day, including free entry for under-18s, and the inter-town Border Principal race.

The feature race of the card is the 7,000 NSPCC School Service Intermediate Hurdle, sponsored by Ray and Anita Green, who will also see their Kelso specialist Snowy bow out after a long career with his last race in the classified chase.
