Verdict

Magnificence won over track and trip last month when beating BEYOND EQUAL by a neck. But the latter had to be switched for a clear run and is taken to turn the tables. Airshow and Sarah's Verse finished behind the selection on that occasion but Regal Envoy had the measure of both Connie's Rose and Cabeza De Llave when successful over the minimum trip here. Secret Handsheikh has been in good form at Brighton while Delagate This Lord won a couple of lower grade sprints here over the summer and Apache Star scored from a high draw over track and trip last month.
