      Verdict

      The returning Chookie Royale had a couple of runs under his belt when just getting the better of GREY MIRAGE (NAP) here at this time last year. But Marco Botti's charge can reverse that running on much better terms today and is also preferred to stablemate Hasapop. Magic City has every chance once again having won in this grade at Kempton in November while Related and Firmdecisions are closely matched on their earlier running at the same track when the former came out on top. Shyron and Brigliadoro arrive on the back of wins but both step up in class off higher marks for this.
