Verdict

WIZARD D'AMOUR couldn't live with Shine So Bright over C&D on reappearance but he is better off at the weights and more consistent than that rival, so he's fancied to reverse the form and get back to winning ways. Bullace could put his best foot forward returning to this course after 7 months off.
