        Verdict

        Mystery Pips is taken to get punters off to a winning start with Redoubtable and Mr Spliffy rated as the main dangers. The selection ran well last time over this course and distance when narrowly beaten behind Levelled. He had previously run well at Wolverhampton after a break and all he has to do is to run up the level of his last two efforts to make the frame. Redoubtable finished behind our selection last time but he was only narrowly beaten by him that day and this game and consistent 14-year-old will not be far away at the finish. Mr Spliffy was disappointing last time but that was over 6f and dropped back to the minimum trip here he looks to have a solid chance. He won here on his penultimate start quite easily and on the evidence of that run he should go close. Velvet Touch was a fair second behind Levelled and finished in front of our selection last time out, but she rarely runs two races alike and a record of no wins from 22 starts hardly inspires confidence. She could go well, but we will stick with Mystery Pips as our idea of the winner.
