Verdict

It wasn't the deepest of races MERLIN THE WIZARD won at Ffos Las 13 days ago, but it was very hard not to be impressed with the manner of his victory and he looks up to completing the hat-trick with further improvement on the cards. New Business and Novus are others to view positively.

  1. MERLIN THE WIZARD
  2. NEW BUSINESS
  3. NOVUS (IRE)
