        edgy in stalls, led, ridden and headed over 1f out, stayed on same pace, no chance with winner

        In depth

        Verdict

        Mythical Madness has won twice over track and trip this summer but was well beaten in a hat-trick bid off this mark last time. It’s almost two years since DOGGED recorded his one and only victory but he is 5lb lower now and runs in a Class 5 for the first time in his career so may be worth a speculative wager to get the better of Curtiz, who appears to have the beating of Yanifer on recent Ffos Las running. Prince Rock beat Bonus on the Polytrack in April and they meet on identical terms.
