Mr Mistoffelees heads this eleven-runner Class 5 contest at Newcastle on the all-weather with a modest edge over his closest pursuers, sitting narrowly ahead of Harry The Rogue and a more meaningful margin clear of the chasing pack, which gives him a tangible advantage over a mile on standard going. Harry The Rogue is the most obvious threat and will need to be respected, while Criminal Shore and Flying Fletcher could complicate matters if the principals disappoint, but the selection's superior profile makes him difficult to oppose. Mr Mistoffelees is our selection.
