Verdict

NEVERUSHACON rates the clear pick at these weights and can boast a C&D win too so he gets the nod after a recent spin on the level. Call It Magic signed off with a gutsy victory here in May and is next on the list on his reappearance, with Ballyboker Bridge another C&D scorer who figures high on the shortlist.
