The performance of Felix Mendelssohn at Bellewstown in August was the best recorded by any in this field, but conditions are a concern ahead of his stable debut and the suggestion is ARDEAN LASS. Stuart Crawford has often made successful raids across the water at this track and his mare handles conditions and has put in two very good efforts in context, so she is taken to break her duck with a similar performance this time. My Old Gold is a very interesting newcomer and a good debut would not surprise, while Cool Mix, Mcgowan's Pass and Magistral are others that can probably get involved.
