Mystic Dragon^t¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: George Wood| T: Mrs I G-Leveque| OR: 47

7/2

Long-standing maiden who ran up to best when second of 12 in handicap at this C&D (firm) 13 days ago, just no match for the convincing winner. Remains to be seen if she's able to back that up.

Form: 9-44662

Forecasts

Smokey Malone (11/4), Mahanakhon Power (10/3), Mystic Dragon (7/2), Aradena (7/2), Baileys Warrior (7/1), Sabre Jet (16/1), Time Zone (40/1), Headland (66/1)

ARADENA shaped well despite still looking in need of the experience when runner-up at Bath a fortnight ago, so she very much appeals as the type to do better now handicapping up in trip. Smokey Malone is proving reliable and is the main threat.
