Race preview

Wise Counsel should appreciate this step up in trip after a promising reappearance at Goodwood over 6f in June, though he has been off the track since. Willie John was fourth in the Golden Mile at Goodwood but it is hard to know what his best trip is, and perhaps BLUE MIST can add another C&D win to his CV. The penny dropped with the five-year-old here last time after some costly defeats, and the suspicion is that a 6lb rise won't be enough to halt his momentum.
