Race preview
Nigel Tinkler's Whinmoor is 37lb higher in the handicap than when starting his four-race winning run at Carlisle back in June and the progressive three-year-old can't be completely ruled out here, despite having been hammered by the assessor for his most recent victory. However, preference is for MYSTIC FLIGHT, who was doing his best work late on when third in a hot York handicap at the Ebor Festival and should have more to come now back over 7f from just a 3lb higher rating. Pettifogger is an interesting recruit from Italy and has to be respected with Ryan Moore in the saddle, while Highlight Reel also has possibilities.
