Verdict

LETS MINGLE finished second in this corresponding race last year and won't bump into such a progressive one this time around. She could be worth chancing over stablemate Bold Light, who has at least won on soft ground, while Maillot Blanc is a danger on the pick of his course form.

2	Two-time Perth winner who bumped into one when runner-up in this corresponding event 12 months ago. Did all she could when beaten 10½ lengths (behind a couple of next-time-out winners) at Perth (3m) latest. Interesting for yard operating at 23% strike rate so far in October (better than the norm). 1st Pick 2 Lets Mingle (Ire) Jockey: Gregor Walkingshaw Trainer: Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore J: Gregor Walkingshaw T: Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore	97	-	-	-	20%

1	Isn't the force he was when emphatically winning a Class 2 handicap over C&D in March 2025. That's reflected in his mark, though, and he was well backed prior to being pulled out on account of the ground (good to firm) here last month. Interesting but stable conditional prefers Lets Mingle. 2nd Pick 1 Bold Light (Ire) Jockey: Megan Davies Trainer: Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore J: Megan Davies T: Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore	98	-	-	-	23%

7	Solid third behind some classier rivals here in April. Runner-up to Ebselysees at Perth prior to going one better (dead-heated) in 2½m course handicap the following month. Probably some mitigation for not firing either start since (likely needed his comeback last time). Danger if back on song. 3rd Pick 7 Maillot Blanc Jockey: Dominic Hislop Trainer: N. W.
