        Verdict

        AIR OF MYSTERY (NAP) made an impressive debut here last September when romping home by an unextended four lengths, after which she was plunged into Group company for her next two starts, all of which proved a bridge too far. Given a nice break by the in-form Marcus Tregoning, she was prominent for a long way until weakening late on in a Newmarket conditions sprint last time and should be spot-on now. Essentially unexposed, she could be better than her current mark. Union Rose must not be discounted despite conceding weight all round but recent Doncaster scorer, Silver Rainbow, could be the one to bustle up the selection with only five starts to date, especially now Charles Hills is in such fine form. Anonymous John's cracking run at Chester over the weekend brings him into the equation along with the unexposed Rathaath.
