Verdict
MAGIC CROSS won a claimer here earlier this year and returned from a couple of months off the track with a good effort over C&D a fortnight ago. He should be spot on now and gets the vote ahead of Eshoog. The latter went close at Wolverhampton on her latest start and should make her presence felt once again. C&D winner Torres Del Paine will have come on for his recent reappearance and could make the frame, while Saucy Buck and Paphos are others to consider.
