A well-contested affair to end proceedings. Although he has ran nowhere near the level connections would have been hoping for after they picked him up for €190,000 in France, Pagero is still not fully exposed and is surely capable of better than he showed on his handicap debut at Wincanton recently. The Fergal O'Brien trained Pride Of Lecale has evidently been difficult to train, but now starts out at a more realistic level with his yard operating at a 36% strike-rate in the last 14 days. For win purposes though the selection is AMZAC MAGIC, who posted a clear career-best when winning at the end of the last season, and he can follow-up off a 6lb higher mark.
