MERCERS has made a good start in handicaps recently, always seeming to run her race and remaining on what looks to be a workable handicap mark. Added to C&D form from when she won her maiden (she one of few of these good enough to win one), and she looks a likely type in a sprint handicap that lacks serious depth. A repeat of her last performance would see Camimo go close, while Ask The Guru hinted at a revival at Bath last time out and is also feared.
