MISTER FIZZ has been hoisted a total of 19lb for his last two victories, including over course and distance last time, but is still taken to complete the hat-trick such has been the impressive nature of those performances, especially when never troubled to oblige here the last day. The move to the Hales team appears to have worked the oracle and he is worth staying with at present. Voodoo Doll is another to have been dealt a harsh hand by the official assessor and his winning run understandably came to a halt last time. He remains of interest here though, as does Cultivator if forgiven a strangely lethargic effort here in early June. Star Foot pulled up last time and Qualando is running well enough but his losing run dates back to March 2015.
