        Verdict

        Iridescence, Mystified and Jaassey are three against the field in this nursery and the vote is given to Mystified. The selection ran well in a better race than this when eighth behind Anna Pavlova last time out. That form has since been franked and off what looks a fair mark she is taken to regain the winning thread. Iridescence is from a shrewd yard and should be noted in the market but he looks to have plenty of weight for what he has actually archived and at likely odds he looks worth opposing. Jaassey is another that could go well on his latest second behind Millfield especially as the step up in trip looks sure to suit. Spunger was a fair third behind First Empire last time out and is another that will appreciate this longer trip. Of the remainder Aysgarth Flyer is another with place claims on his latest second behind Captivate but he may do better over a longer trip in time and for the winner we return to Mystified.
