Mirsky
7yo who was 6lb lower when landing this race (good to soft) last season; this year's running is more competitive but his success in the Thirsk Hunt Cup (1m, good to firm) last month was close to a career best and he had a possible excuse when failing to back that up at York; can't be ruled out.

From the connections
“That was perfect, although Mirsky probably travelled too well into the race. I didn't want to get there that early, but I didn't want to let him down either. Thankfully, he's a willing companion and kept sticking his head out. He had a nice run at Musselburgh and probably tightened up for it. He's a good early summer horse as he comes to hand pretty quickly. He showed that last year and has done it well again today - Jockey Mark Winn, Speaking to Racing TV.”
“Mirsky ran well a few times last year without winning, but we always felt he had something like this in him. It maybe took us a while to get the hang of him, but he's won his last two now, which is great. The Hunt Cup would be a possibility now - David O'Meara, trainer.”
“Mirsky was second in the Clipper Logistics at the Ebor meeting last year but that's his first win for us. It was a long enough last furlong, he's a strong traveller and seems best ridden prominently - David O'Meara, trainer.”
