KEY OF MAGIC wasn't able to justify favouritism on debut at Sandown, but it was a promising start to his career nonetheless and, as a well-bred colt with a hefty price tag and representing powerful connections, it's not hard to envisage him taking a step forward here. Several of the newcomers are appealing, particularly Tierra Del Toro and Dagger Strike, while May Angel and Sovereign View should both come on for their debut spins.
