Verdict
Mr Wagyu is penalised for winning at Hamilton last week and is upped a grade. Magical Effect won over track and trip in April with stablemate FINAL FRONTIER back in third. But the latter is now back on a winning mark for the first time since last successful and Ruth Carr’s charge is taken to reverse running in this. Marve won at Southwell earlier in the year but has yet to threaten in handicaps.
