Verdict
Bernardo O'Reilly won this on faster going last year while Magical Spirit goes well here though finished behind the runner-up HYPERFOCUS at Haydock last autumn. The latter is at home on testing ground and ended last year by going close in a tougher sprint at York. Intrinsic Bond, Aleezdancer and Tinto were all successful at Ripon last summer while Swayze beat Another Investment when scoring at Newcastle recently. Blind Beggar has won twice on the all-weather over the winter but Dream Composer has a bit to prove off his current mark.
