Verdict
Deinonychus attempted to make all when odds-on over 1m2f here last time but came up short. He may do better over this longer trip and is preferred to Magnified. The latter's recent poor effort at Southwell may have been down to the surface given he had shaped much better at Wolverhampton on his debut. Magic Magnolia is rated much lower than VIOLET DANCER over hurdles and the latter went close at Kempton the last time he raced on the Flat. Gary Moore's charge may well be up to landing this with the newcomer Leah Freya probably best watched.
