Verdict
Most of these are old friends and nine have won on the course. Your Pal Tal and My Good Brother have won eleven times here between them while Ken's Sam's and Red All Star are dual winners though have taken 19 and 26 starts respectively to reach those totals. Blastofmagic is a 5f specialist whose last dozen starts have been over that trip but he looks well enough handicapped to give a good account over the extra. ISEEBREEZE (NAP) has never run over a trip this short but was always in the front rank when beating Ken's Sam's over 7f three weeks ago. That was only her sixth start and with more to come she can defy a 3lb rise and complete a double. The unexposed Ingelara is one to note if getting a run from her reserve spot.
