Verdict

MERCURY MISSION probably overdid things on the front end when making his handicap debut here last time but has been dropped 3 lb as a result and his previous form is encouraging enough to think he can make an impact from this kind of mark. He's preferred to Lady Doyanne, who shaped well on chase bow last winning, and course regular Tequila Talkin'.
