Verdict

Possibly the weaker of the 2 divisions and MAGIC HARRY stands out among those with experience after his promising first run over 6f at Pontefract last month. Muhandes and Sterling Cooper are newcomers from top stables who could pose a threat if the betting speaks in their favour. Jinman should also step up on his Sandown debut.
