Verdict

MISTER FREEZE has raced mainly on the all-weather and won at Southwell before going close again at Kempton. But he can race off a lower mark on this surface and ran well at Brighton when last seen on Turf. Thriller's Moon produced a much better effort at Ripon on his handicap bow and steps up in trip while Champagne Highlife won at Chepstow last month but quickly reverted to his more usual poor form last time. Itmakesyouthink and Pure Purfection were both placed on the all-weather on their penultimate starts.
