Verdict

MICA MIKA has shaped as if he'd appreciate further on the AW when finishing third the last twice. Representing an in form yard the gelding finished a close up third off this mark here in a Class 3 event last month and takes a drop in grade here with the jockey booking another positive to his chance in this having been ridden by an apprentice the last twice. Afonso De Sousa returned to form when finishing third here a fortnight ago and while both of his wins since his debut maiden success have come in conditions events he's now rated 15lb lower than when finishing third at Chelmsford 12 months ago while last years winner Royal Marskell is also to be respected despite his recent moderate runs. 1. Mica Mika 2. Afonso De Sousa 3. Royal Marskell
