Verdict
HOLIDAY MAGIC was narrowly beaten over 7f at Newcastle last time but finished ahead of Steel Train and Supersta. He landed a hat-trick at the turn of the year and is in the Lincoln along with Nimr. The latter won over 7f here last month while Pactolus and Abareeq won over longer trips on their latest starts. Examiner also drops back in trip while Top Notch Tonto wears his owners first colours ahead of stablemate Dream Walker and both are entered in the Lincoln. Baraweez is a third Brian Ellison runner and he should be sharper for last week’s comeback while Forceful Appeal is back on a winning mark.
