Verdict
Seasearch won over 1m6f at Southwell recently but was well beaten over today’s trip at Newcastle last month. Atomic Jack also carries 6lb extra having won over 2m at Kempton last week while Thresholdofadream put a poor effort effort behind here to go close over track and trip last time. Nafaayes finished in front of Argyle again when runner-up here on her latest start but a chance is taken on the unexposed MOOD FOR MISCHIEF given Ed Walker’s charge just missed out when second at Chelmsford on his first attempt at this 2m trip.
