Verdict

MAGICAL RHYTHMS finished third at Newmarket last time when just behind Loving Glance, due to race in the previous division of this. A good run from the latter would boost confidence and she’s partnered by Frankie Dettori for the first time today. Mayne wasn’t beaten far when only finishing sixth at Chelmsford and is preferred to Knockacullion, placed at the latter track on his debut, but Al Moataz finished a long way behind a subsequent Listed winner when runner-up at Nottingham. The 425,000gns purchase Ghadbbaan is the first foal of a sister to a Group 1 winner, though has no fancy entries and has already undergone wind surgery.
