Verdict

SOUL MAGIC is penalised 7lb for beating old rival My Condor here on Thursday but that was his third C&D victory in a row and there doesn't appear to be anything in this capable of ending his winning run. Youandme finished tailed off in that contest, while Tranos was pulled up at Sedgefield last Tuesday. Apache Dawn showed little over fences in two runs in 2009, while Finnegans Rainbow hasn't won since February 2008 and Night Reveller will surely need this after a long lay-off.
