In depth
Verdict
Filfil looks to have been overestimated judged on his efforts in handicaps so far and it remains to be seen if Al Udeid is fairly rated having won a maiden over 6f here last month. MYSTICAL MAN hasn't raced since scoring at Pontefract in July but he had four subsequent winners behind on that occasion and James Tate's charge is taken to make a winning start to his career in handicaps. The remainder have plenty to find and make little appeal with possibly Secret Symphony, well behind the selection earlier, coming out best of them.
