Tattersalls Gold Cup (Group 1)

This Group 1 may not take place on it's usual date this year, but it has arguably a more stellar field than it usually does. The one who takes all the beating is the top-class MAGICAL, who has been kept in training this term and arguably looked even better when oozing her typical class in the Pretty Polly Stakes last time. She is expected to take this on her way to loftier targets. It's no gimme however, and the duo of Buckhurst and Leo De Fury are on an upward curve and thrive over this C&D. One to note is Armory, who shaped as if he was crying out for a step up in trip in the Irish 2,000 Guineas and takes advantage of being allowed in the race as a three-year-old for this year only.

1. Magical
