Verdict
Marko Jadeo is narrowly preferred to Mystic Man and Resplendent Prince. Marko Jadeo was an unfortunate loser at Lingfield two weeks ago and probably would have won a non-seller had he not met with trouble in running at a vital stage. Mystic Man is now with Ian McInnes. He wins his share of races and this is his grade. He will need of all Paul Hanagan's tactical knowhow to be taking this contest from a wide draw. Resplendent Prince won a very weak seller at the beginning of last month. He was held on a return to handicaps and is back into the basement grade again. Joy And Pain's better form is over shorter. Sahara Prince has plenty to do with a number of the market principals. Tregarron is watched in the market for any positive signs while course-and-distance winner, Hadath has an interesting jockey booking. Marko Jadeo was unlucky last time out but we believe compensation awaits on this occasion.
