In depth
Verdict
This is the feature race of the day which may fall to the in form Mr Mischief, with Typhoon Tilly and Western two of the main dangers. Pat Haslam's gelding has yet to race on the Polytrack but has been most impressive in his recent victories at Wolverhampton and Southwell and we think it is worth chancing that he will handle this surface. Western couldn't quite peg back Red Scorpion over the two mile trip here last time and will be better suited by the drop in trip having been successful over one mile five furlongs on his previous visit. Typhoon Tilly made his all-weather debut here in November when finishing a close up third behind high point. He has won on the turf off a mark of 90 so could be very well treated here. In a very competitive race Cold Turkey is another to consider but we will side with Mr Mischief.
