Verdict
The Harry Fry team has shown signs of returning to previous levels of form of late and HURRICANE MITCH is a likely sort for the yard here. He's been off for nearly a year but showed a fair level of ability last season and looks fairly treated for this handicap bow after wind surgery. Hopefully the market will reflect his wellbeing. Similar comments apply to Mr Washington who rattled up a four-timer last term, with three under today's pilot. He has also undergone wind surgery and will be a key player if returning to last term's level. Tip Top Cat is a likely improver after a solid debut last time for his new yard and is noted along with Bean in Trouble and Pour Une Raison.
