Wade's Magic^p¹¹

4/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in August. Not disgraced when third of 6 in handicap (5/2) at this C&D (soft) 11 days ago. Possible his busy spell is starting to catch up with him but is respected nonetheless.

Forecasts

Langholm (13/8), Eldeyaar (11/4), Wade's Magic (4/1), Autumn Flight (7/1), Laura's Breeze (10/1), Fircombe Hall (28/1), Point Of Woods (28/1)

LANGHOLM was beaten only by a unexposed 3-y-o here last time and he's fancied to gain his first win of the season. Eldeyaar held a positional advantage when beating course specialist Wade's-Magic at Ripon when they last met and that pair head the list of dangers.
