Excelebration gelding who was runner-up in a point prior to a positive start under Rules when second at Market Rasen a month ago. Claims if he can build on that.

Shirocco gelding. Half-brother to 4 winners, including Vermithor and Sinndarka. Makes plenty of appeal on pedigree, so worth nothing on debut.

Timeform
Bettered her debut effort when fourth at Newton Abbot 37 days ago but will need to take another marked step forward if he's to play a serious role in this.

Dr Massini mare. Dam (c89/h93) 2m hurdle winner. Yard not renowned for winning newcomers, so easy to look elsewhere.

Yet to show anything in bumpers, so set for another struggle.

9/4
Second of 14 in bumper (33/1) at Tipperary (16f, good to soft) on NH debut, no match for winner. Has left Barry Fitzgerald and been off 9 months since, but excellent claims if she's tuned up.

14/1
Related to a bumper winner and showed a bit to work on when sixth at Worcester first time out. Now tongue tied and open to improvement, so not completely ruled out.

Camelot filly. Half-sister to 5 winners on Flat, including useful 1¼m-1½m winner Distain. Reasonable Flat pedigree, so worth considering if the market speaks in her favour.

Forecasts

Magical Orla (9/4), Luke San (10/3), Old Duke (10/3), Lady Excalibur (4/1), Cards Are Dealt (10/1), Frankie Moon (14/1), Oscars Reign (14/1), Rose Kar (25/1), Iroseaboveitall (28/1), Lucky Monarch (250/1)

Verdict

MAGICAL ORLA hasn't been seen since finishing second at Tipperary for Barry Fitzgerald 9 months ago but that form is solid and comfortably the best on offer in this race, so she's capable of going one better unless newcomers Old Duke or Lady Excalibur prove to be above average.

  1. MAGICAL ORLA
  2. OLD DUKE (IRE)
  3. LADY EXCALIBUR (IRE)
