Verdict
Typical of one from his yard, MYSTIQUE HEIGHTS has improved with every step up in distance. Sir Mark Prescott’s charge is likely to prove popular taking on an even longer trip today having won over 1m6f at Sandown last time when Tyrell finished third – the latter re-opposes on better terms but is less progressive than the selection. Dusky Raider is another 1m6f winner who had a legitimate excuse when tailed off at Catterick last time on unfavourable soft going. Rainbow Lad and Regal Galaxy make no appeal in their current form.
