Forecasts

Magic Saint (4/6), Full Irish (11/4), Wells De Lune (4/1), Sizing Platinum (11/2), Ink Master (8/1)

Having been largely disappointing so far over fences former smart French performer MAGIC SAINT gets this drop in class and he surely will take an awful lot of beating with the majority of his rivals having doubts themselves for one reason or other. Sizing Platinum's form around this time last year would make him a very real threat and Ink Master is probably capable of going well back on his favoured ground.
