Verdict

LUCKY MISTAKE has yet to match his debut third at York in a couple of subsequent starts. But the Fahey colt gets a tentative vote as he is clear of the others on handicap ratings including Wolverhampton third Monte Cinq and Yorkshiredebut, a runner-up here last month. Hueston also has a bit to find judged on his form in Ireland so Dakota Gold, a modest third at Thirsk on his racecourse debut may prove a bigger threat.
