Race Tip
Dropping back to 6f on soft ground could see Irish raider MERCURIAL (6) put his head back in front. Worn down late over 7½f at Roscommon last week looks suited by this test. Last start Kempton winner DRAMA (2) needs to prove his effectiveness on soft ground. Continues to head in the right direction since being fitted with cheekpieces and may yet have more to offer. PALMAR BAY (4) shaped better than the bare result when seventh in a competitive handicap at Ascot. Might go well down in weights for a yard in excellent form. WOVEN (1) makes for place appeal.
