12/1
Lightly-raced winner. 8/1, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 59 days ago, easily. 5 lb higher mark to overcome on debut for new yard and that may prove to be a bridge too far.

6/1
Career best when winning 7-runner handicap (17/2) at Kempton (8f) 34 days ago, always holding on. 4 lb rise fair enough and she should be in the mix once again.

Forecasts

Magician of Riga (13/8), Hardstyle (9/4), Charlotte Corday (9/2), Hamaleel (6/1), Fille Imbassee (12/1), Lifeguard (20/1)

Verdict

Despite barely beating a rival home in three starts as a juvenile, MAGICIAN OF RIGA is of strong interest now upped in trip for this all-weather/handicap debut off what could turn out to be a very handy opening mark. If there is confidence behind him in the betting, all the better. Hamaleel found some improvement when scoring at Kempton last time and she is feared most, while Hardstyle could also have a big part to play if able to shrug off a below-par display on his latest start.
