        Verdict

        Dark Mystery has placed in small fields at Sandown and Newmarket but remains winless. Meleri was second in a higher grade last time and is by Nathaniel, though her dam was a miler so stamina might be an issue. Wagga Wagga goes from strength-to-strength and has already won over this trip and further but JALEA MOON handled the good to soft at Leicester in June and has improved since so can take this. Novel Legend will strip fitter for a first run since being gelded but he’s yet to live up to his excellent pedigree.
