DE VEGAS KID (NAP) is at his best here and is overdue another course win. Recent placed efforts suggest a bold bid is likely and he’s preferred to Goddess Of Fire. The latter went close at Newmarket last week and can figure again but Dark Company’s recent second came over a longer trip at Yarmouth. Magnetised tumbles further down the weights without yet looking like taking advantage.

Magnetised 40-1 (9-0) Towards rear of mid-division, never on terms, 10th of 12, 6 1/4l behind Billhilly (9-9) at Lingfield 1m hcp (3) pol in Aug.
Dark Company (IRE) 16-1 (9-2) Soon led, ridden and headed inside final 2f, switched right over 1f out, stayed on same pace, no chance with winner, 2nd of 6, 4l behind Moktasaab (9-5) at Yarmouth 1m 2f hcp (4) gf in Aug.
