MAJOR CATCH seems to have improved for the drop back in trip, and after racing in touch, he found plenty to score driven out. He's going the right way.
Mr Mischief was coming back after a break, and faced no easy task with his double penalty. However, although he took a strong grip early, he came to win his race at the last, but hung left and found little. He's got a fair strike-rate over hurdles, but on this occasion he didn't look straightforward.
The first three were well clear of Oyster Pearl, who looks a real chasing sort, but shaped better than on his first run in Britain.
