    Verdict

    Mr Mafia has been well beaten since winning at Market Rasen with MISTER TICKLE behind. But the latter has hit form subsequently and landed a double with a recent victory over track and trip. He’s taken to reverse running despite today’s penalty though Ebony Gale looks a bigger threat on his win at Worcester in June for which he’s been raised 5lb.
