A poor finale, which features an unconvincing bunch, many of whom are sporting various forms of headgear for the first time. MIZEN MASTER is the stand out performer in the line up having improved massively over hurdles since switched to the care of Olly Murphy. Whilst he was no match for Sweet Holly under a double penalty at Kelso last month, he's now rated 127 over hurdles, so there's every likelihood that he's thrown in from this mark of just 55 on the Flat, with his previous moderate form on the level coming in Ireland for John Joseph Murphy.
