Verdict
BEAU MISTRAL can be forgiven a below par effort over 6f at Kempton given she has done all her winning so far over the minimum trip on Turf including at Leicester last month. She still finished ahead of Pearl Noir at Kempton and the latter was a long way in front of Irish Girls Spirit when runner-up at Catterick earlier. Iggy should be more at home back in this lower grade judged on last month's third at Beverley but Tinsill and Synonym arrive out of form.
