In depth
Verdict
Miss Phillyjinks was narrowly beaten in a maiden race here by a horse rated 67. That should give SONG OF PARADISE (NAP), rated 71, every chance after going close in a handicap last time with Murdanova behind. Chris Wall's filly gets the nod to open her account. Magic Garden ran a shocker at Newbury back in June but had shown ability on her earlier debut before that and may well improve past the more exposed Ten Rocks.
