Verdict

Magical Effect is the senior runner in this but will likely handle conditions better than most. Johnny Peate’s claim is a plus for Highlight Reel and Sovereign Moon is another to consider while Mayson Mount arrives off the back of a victory in a similar contest at Chepstow, though that was on much quicker ground. SPARTAKOS won twice over this trip last year, both times on going with some give, and would be a threat to all if rediscovering that form.
