        Verdict

        My Boy Sepoy floundered in soft going at Newmarket last time but won over a mile here back in May. Maiden winner Mystic Meg is creeping closer in handicaps and wasn’t beaten far when fourth at Windsor last time but this is tougher than the seller Mouchee won at the latter track in July. STRAIGHT ASH won for Richard Hannon earlier this year before scoring for his new yard at Musselburgh last month. Ollie Pears’ charge looked to win with a bit to spare on that occasion and may well go in again raised only 2lb.
