In depth

Verdict

Mehmo attracted market support when third at Southwell eight days ago following a short break. Embla made it 18th-time lucky at Wolverhampton on the same day but it’s about time MIMOSET was getting her head in front given she’s gone close on a few occasions and has only finished out of the frame twice in her eight career starts. Man On A Mission has won twice at Lingfield but was no match for the odds-on Hiya Maite at Southwell earlier this week.
