MISSION TO MARS was a beaten odds-on favourite over 2000m last time and will be looking to atone dropped back to 1600m, the distance over which he won his maiden by more than 10 lengths. RADIO STAR wasn't winning out of turn on the Inside track 17 days ago but did benefit from his rider's 4kg claim. He ought to remain competitive under a penalty without the weight allowance but, on the form of their 12 September meeting, CAPTAIN WEST is weighted to turn the tables on these revised terms. Returning WILD INTENT (changed stables), PORRIDGE BOY and YIPPEE KIYAY are also weighted to be competitive.
