Race Tip

MYSTIFICATION (7) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found a couple better over 1m at this track, beaten only 0.8 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Tackling a more suitable race so he is sure to prove hard to beat. MAN AMONG MEN (3) is coming off a last-start fourth, beaten 2 lengths, over 1m at this track. Likely to feature. COALINGA ROAD (5) resumed over 6½f last time out and turned in a solid effort to finish fifth in stakes class at this track (Turf) after he was well back on straightening. The extra journey should play into his hands. Can win this without surprising. HALFWAY LINE (4) is back at the races for the first time since September 29. Scored over 7f at Le Lion-d'angers at the start of last prep. Has a strong when resuming record, scoring on two occasions from three runs. Lines up. For the first time for trainer philip d'amato. Definite top-three chance.
