Verdict

Sea of Mystery hasn’t raced since a beaten favourite last July but the lack of a recent run isn’t normally a problem for one from his yard. However, GET WISHES has already won around here and there was plenty to like about his first run back following wind surgery at Exeter. Stephanie Sunshine finished ahead of Big Chip And Pin and Hold Me Tight over 2m here last month and should enjoy the longer trip. Sally Can't Wait and Don Herbager may be best of the rest as Jimmy Bell continually flatters to deceive.
