Verdict
Presto Boy does most of his racing on the all-weather and is still winless after 23 races. Magical Daze won over 5f here last year but that was on much quicker ground. Robert The Painter last ran over a trip this short in 2011 so has questions to answer and neither of Tony Carroll's runners are getting any younger. However, OCEAN LEGEND goes well here and will handle conditions so gets a tentative vote with Josh Bryan taking off 7lb, ahead of stablemate Time Medicean.
