        Verdict

        MYTHICAL BLUE can come out on top in this handicap and he gets the vote over Hillside Lad and Hi Shinko. The selection won a claimer here in good style last month and he was far from disgraced in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. He has trip and ground to suit and if this frontrunner is given an easy lead then he could difficult to catch. Hillside Lad won at Salisbury last time when he got the better of Bateleur but he did get the run of the race that day and he might not get things all his own way this afternoon from his high draw. However, he has got his ground so he has to be considered. Hi Shinko wasn't beaten all that far at Warwick last time over 6f and this slight drop in trip will not inconvenience him, nor will the ground conditions. Silky Way disappointed last time but she is a lightly-raced filly and she could be capable of bouncing back. This race will not take much winning but Mythical Blue looks to hold the most solid claims.
