Verdict

This is a very winnable event and many will take one look at Mukha Magic's win here last week and decide a repeat will be good enough. However, he has won easily before only to be turned out quickly and disappoint, and at the likely short price, might be worth taking on. It's not impossible Contingency Fee could take them from start to finish but his recent form isn't that great, and a chance is taken on POTENZA, who hasn't been seen out since September but has the potential to improve again for his new yard, who haven't had him long.
