In depth
Verdict
Jennifer Eccles has experience of the Polytrack and got off the mark at Fontwell back in October. MR MOUNTAIN was given too much to do when second to Manhattan Spring here in December but is now 7lb better and should be capable of turning the tables on Seamus Mullins' charge. Good Idea is probably better than he showed at Bangor last April while Flat-bred newcomer Scarper is worth a market check.
