SAXON MAGIC does have a wide draw to overcome but he hails from a stable that are more than capable of having them ready first time out. Ben Y Bryn hasn’t shown much in three starts so far though connections have kept the faith. Claxton Bay was unheralded in the market before a decent fourth at Lingfield and that certainly won’t be the case on this occasion. Heathcliff is related to winners over further but the trainer has his string in decent nick at present and it wouldn’t be a total surprise were this debutant to prove good enough to land the spoils.
