Fresh from success over fences at Ayr 19 days ago, THE OTHER MOZZIE could potentially be very well-treated back over hurdles. Gold Speed hinted at a revival when last seen and returns from a break (has gone well fresh in the past) now 2 lb below his last winning mark, while hat-trick seeking Mercury Mission could still be ahead of the handicapper.
