Verdict

MITIGATOR left his seasonal/stable debut run behind when second at this C&D 16 days ago, despite having been short of room entering the straight, and he can build on that effort to return to winning ways. Kodi Noir is going through a good spell at present and is feared most, ahead of Storm Asset.
