Verdict
Mission Complete has had a bit of a break since his winning run came to an end at Wetherby in January. He reappears off a 4lb higher mark and is 5lb worse off than when beaten by Derwen Pryde on good ground at Ludlow in the autumn so is probably worth opposing today. One More Cookie looks harshly treated on her handicap debut but PRESENTED must have every chance of overturning a short-head defeat by Medic Man at Hereford on 3lb better terms as he was a winner on this faster surface between the flags. The five-year-old can get the better of the one-paced Free Advice and Vivarini, second over 2m4f here last time but inconsistent.
