Mercurial
Over two years since latest of only two wins; second over 6f at the Curragh in October and ran well over 7.5f on return, but poor strike-rate overall; prefers it soft but handles good.

From the connections
“Mercurial has got a great attitude. He's done it well enough. It's probably not his ground today. This wind and the lack of rain today has made it quite testing and it's holding, sticky ground. He moved so well on fast ground at Bath. He just does enough, he's probably got a little bit more up his sleeve - Hayley Turner, jockey.”
