In depth
Verdict
Bounty Pursuit’s winning run came to an end off today’s mark at Southwell recently and it remains to be seen how well Magic Mirror copes with a 6lb rise for winning over a mile here back in January. Tidal's Baby has been in the mix over 6f but his only win on the all-weather so far came back in 2012 and HIPZ is preferred. The latter won over today’s trip at Chelsmford in October and Laura Mongan’s mare just missed out at Lingfield on his latest start when dead-heating for second with a subsequent winner.
