Verdict
My Mirasol gets the vote here with Jemima Godfrey and Briarwood Bear rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Jemima Godfrey with plenty in hand and although that rival is slightly better off at the weights here he is taken to confirm his superiority over her. Jemima Godfrey is sure to have her supporters on these revised terms but her overall profile leaves her with a little to find. Briarwood Bear is another that could go well on his latest fourth behind Red Petal, this represents a drop in class and he should be watched in the market. Of the remainder Mick Is Back is from a yard in form and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to My Mirasol.
