Verdict

Stealing Mix was beaten in a match at Wincanton last Sunday having failed to make the frame in any of his seven previous starts under Rules. He’s unlikely to offer much competition for AZARI, a Listed winner on the Flat in Italy who is sure to have learnt plenty from his run at Wincanton last March - that was his first start since being gelded. None of the others make much appeal.
