OUT OF THE MIST had a bit in hand when beating Mardale a length-and-a-half over track and trip in November and wasn't suited by the early pace when only fifth in a Listed contest at Huntingdon subsequent. Emma Lavelle's mare may well be good enough to defy her penalty though there is certainly more to come from Mardale and Wincanton fourth Jully Les Buxy. Tara The Tiger only found one too good at Wetherby two weeks ago while Viva Star and Element Quartet were also placed on debut. Rubichamps has a jumping pedigree and looks the most interesting of the newcomers.
