Man O'Mystery can overcome a poor draw to make amends for a narrow defeat in last year's John Smith's Cup in the 42nd running of the £135,000 contest at York today.The four-year-old races from stall 16 of 22. However, 10 of the last 11 winners of the race have had a draw in single-figures so tactics will play a major part in Man O'Mystery's bid to land the Knavesmire feature.But his regular partner Pat Eddery is in the plate today and he is an expert at weaving his through a big field.Jeremy Noseda's colt looked to have the first prize in safe keeping 12 months ago but was caught on the line and beaten a head by Sobriety.Man O'Mystery has returned as good as ever this term and at Newbury he failed by a whisker to catch Dramatic Quest after coming with his customary late run.
