        Verdict

        In the opener, Magic Amour gets the call ahead of maybe Ardkeel Lass and Smirfy's Party. Course and distance winner Magic Amour comes into this race running well and, still rated on what seems a competitive mark for this level, he can go well today. Ardkeel Lass caught the eye staying on late last time and the step up in trip could yet bring more. Trouble Maker is lightly raced and open to improvement, while Urban Rose ran pretty well from a modest draw after a break last time, and cannot be discounted. Pheckless caught the eye two runs ago, but all of his wins have come at seven or further. Beverley Beau's Lingfield third three runs ago gives him a shout on his Southwell debut. Enjoy The Buzz ran well after a break last time and, having finished ahead of Hiamovi that day, this course and distance winner gets a fair shout, although Smirfy's Party, who was just behind him there, has at least the equal of his chance based on that run. Carcinetto has yet to build on his Wolverhampton win, while Malahide Express's best Turf form gives him a chance, although his all-weather record is a bit patchy. Finally, Hiamovi did not look straightforward last time and might need some kidding. He's got the man for the job on board but, overall, we are going to opt for Magic Amour, that's if he runs because he put in a rather flat performance here on Monday.
