Verdict

Shades Of Mist made a winning handicap debut when scoring over 5f at Southwell and is 6lb higher. Lord Of The Glen is upped a further 3lb for finishing second over 6f here having won over track and trip before that. Mother of Dragons is usually thereabouts without winning so the vote in a tricky closing event goes to MAGIC MARK, who went close over today’s distance at Wolverhampton last month despite not getting a clear run. That was his first start since August having been gelded during the interim and Karl Burke’s charge should also be sharper sporting a first-time visor.
