Verdict

This could develop into something of a cat and mouse affair as a lack of experience over fences makes this a bit of a risky proposition for a bet. However, Mytimie fared well enough on his chasing debut here 16 days ago to suggest that he can find a race somewhere along the line. He was ultra consistent over timber last season and can put his race fitness to good use today. Mumbai is yet to really set the world alight in the chasing sphere so it will be no surprise to see Karajan, who would not have too much to find on hurdles ratings, give the TEAMtalk selection the most to do.
