In depth
Verdict
Mizen Master won over 2m at Wolverhampton in September and has placed over hurdles since while Restive gets additional headgear in the hope of a return to form. But Sea Of Mystery’s earlier victory here came over a longer trip in a seller while Affair’s previous attempts on the Fibresand don’t inspire confidence. ARCHIPPOS finished runner-up in plating company on his only previous start here but has slipped down the weights since and gets a token vote in a weak contest.
