Verdict
This looks quite competitive but Halcyon Magic, Munaawesh and Bulawayo all look to have a leading chance and the vote is given to the first mentioned. The selection looked like one to follow when an unlucky loser last time at Lingfield behind Quest On Air. The drop in trip will not be a problem today and granted a clear run here he should take plenty of beating. Munaawesh was disappointing last time but he will be suited by the step up in trip and he's likely to get the fast pace that he requires to be seen to his best. Bulawayo is again tried over longer trip but he has been disappointing when he has previously been upped in trip and although this is a weak race others are preferred. Danum is from a shrewd yard and has definite place claims on his best form and although he was disappointing last time out he has been freshened up by an 80 day break from action and he is one to note in the market. But Halcyon Magic looked like one to stay on the right side of last time and he is given the vote.
