Not a race to get heavily involved in, but Needwood Mystic is normally reliable in these types of races. Although she has a liitle to find at the weights, her rider knows her well, which is worth a few pounds and she may be able to repell Follow Your Star. Peter Harris' gelding will appreciate the drop in class and will be well handled by his capable rider.
