Verdict
Cadeau Magnifique was returned a losing favourite when second at Newcastle last time and a line through the winner gives him something to find with recent course and distance second Sands Chorus. The latter has every chance and so does JUMBO PRADO, who only won a claimer here recently but hasn’t much more to do in this. He can confirm running with Essenaitch while Idol Deputy was a length behind Sands Chorus here last time. House Of Commons has slipped down the weights since winning a maiden race at Ripon and could go well.
