Verdict

All of Me and Kay Gee Be both come here on the back of narrow wins last time and have more to do off their new marks today so it may be worth taking a chance with handicap newcomer Mystery River. The selection showed some promise as a two-year-old and looked as though she would be all the better for her reappearance when a creditable fourth here behind Silver Pivotal. Richard Hughes takes over from a relatively inexperienced apprentice today and, off what looks a fair mark, Mystery River gets the verdict. Dream Lodge has every chance of reversing form with All Of Me on their running here last month and cannot be discounted, while Count Ceprano should strip fitter for his recent return and has to be respected. Walter Swinburn's colt has to give plenty of weight away to Mystery River though and, in receipt of weight from most of her rivals she looks worth a bet.
