Verdict
Ideally you want a high draw, an 83-87 rating and a run in the last 14 days. Last years winner was an exception but we fancy MAGICAL EFFECT to tick the right boxes here. His yard are in great form and his latest success, when overcoming an uncharacteristically slow start to score impressively, shows him to be taking on his toughest test in the best possible shape. The Armed Man brings a similarly progressive profile into this and Red Pike has dropped to a nice mark. Harwood's Volante and Bossipop have each-way claims.
