Verdict
ROSA MYSTICA returned to action with a second over track and trip and can go one better in this confirming running with Almodovar Del Rio in the process. Hattie C went close in a lower grade at Bath recently while Dalby Forest has been thereabouts at Wolverhampton and is preferred to Accelerando. Libertus makes his handicap debut and should be noted.
