Dream Magic is penalised for winning at Wolverhampton but was tailed off on his only previous start on this surface. Go On Gal won over 1m4f here in August but that was her first success in 22 starts while Ingleby Spring has something to prove over the trip and Master Of Song was well beaten in last year’s renewal. But STAR ASCENDING won over course and distance before going close again back here last week and Jennie Candish’s charge looks the one to beat on recent form.
