This stiff five-furlongs on firm ground should prove ideal for Mousehole. Rae Guest's grand old campaigner hasn't won for over a year and as a consequence has tumbled down the handicap. He isn't badly drawn and will get the strong pace he needs. Hout Bay has ability, but he looked none to keen at Leicester on Monday, while Mungo Park is another who promises more than he delivers. Brecongill Lad, without a win for over two years, is well treated nowadays. He will not mind the ground and could run well at a big price.
