Chakrii won a Class 7 contest over track and trip on his first outing as a gelding and carries 6lb extra. Greyzee was beaten only a neck at Wolverhampton recently having earlier finished behind Warrior Display at the same track though the latter has been well beaten subsequently. Tabou Beach Boy and Willkommen filled the placed behind Warrior Display and have a shout in this but a tentative vote in an open affair goes to ACT OF MAGIC. Formerly trained in Ireland, the latter failed to land a gamble when sent off favourite at Wolverhampton on his handicap debut but left his previous form behind and this extra distance should suit.
