Verdict
A cracking confrontation between Mission To Mars and Cold Turkey, with preference for the latter, with Mr Mischief and Mandoob likely to put up a bold show. Cold Turkey is in a rich vein of form at present, and anybody who saw Gary Moore¿s three-year-old hack up here six days ago will not want to oppose him. That handicap win was his third in succession, and straight after, connections pulled him out of a claimer to wait for this. He will take the beating and can put an end to the equally impressive run of Mission To Mars. Peter Hedger¿s four-year-old lines up chasing a five-timer but has gone up the weights again after his third success here 16 days ago. That will not make his task any easier against his younger rival, although he does not give in easily. Mr Mischief has to concede weight all round, but Mandoob may sneak into the frame off his light weight. However, we are sweet on the chance of Cold Turkey who can pay to follow again before going hurdling this winter.
