WYLDE MAGIC (NAP) is still a maiden over hurdles but should rectify that today if returning in the same form as when third in a Grade 3 over a shorter trip at Sandown in March when Ramses De Teillee, who is worse off at the weights, was sixth. Culture De Sivola also tries a new trip but shouldn't be far away if he lasts home. Gran Maestro continues his slide down the weights but hasn't won for a long time while Mondello and Royale Django would need to improve on recent efforts to land this.
