        Verdict

        Mistral Sky can get the better of Ishibee, Kindallachan and Anfield Dream. We have been following the fortunes of Mistral Sky all year, and it is about time that Stef Liddiard's gelding got back to winning ways. He has flattered to deceive on a number of occasions, but placed efforts on the all-weather back in the spring suggest that he can come good again off his current mark. He is 2lb better off with Kindallachan for a narrow defeat to Giles Bravery's charge at Wolverhampton, and should at the very least turn the tables on that rival. Ishibee will be a bigger danger perhaps, having bounced back with a recent course-and-distance success, but she was given a peach of a ride by Seb Sanders then, and he is not in the plate this evening to try and overcome her low draw. Anfield Dream goes well round here but has plenty of weight, and so we shall instead give Mistral Sky another chance.
