        Verdict

        Indian Wizard looks more than capable of taking this seller at these weights, with Bathwick Rox and Wee Charlie Castle possibles to complete the frame. The selection was a winner off this mark of 64 at Musselburgh in October, when last seen out on the track. He steps up a fair bit in trip here, but has a little in hand at the weights and if ridden to get this trip then we can see him staying on and landing this poor contest. Bathwick Rox receives 6lb from the selection and is interesting in first-time blinkers. He looks likely to get home here, so could expose any chinks in the armour of the selection at these weights. Of the others, Wee Charlie Castle hasn't really fired over nine furlongs on two attempts here, though if he is ridden closer to the pace then we may see improvement, while Nico's Girl is stepped back up in trip and any market confidence would probably be significant. Not a race to dwell on and we suggest Indian Wizard to work any magic he may possess.
