In depth
Verdict
A chance is taken that MAGIC PULSE shows further progress attempting 6f for the first time having found one too good on her handicap debut over the minimum trip here a fortnight ago. She’s taken to confirm latest running with Cove Beach and Zapateado. Llamrei returns to this longer distance having placed over 5f at Windsor and Arachina’s recent third came over 7f here. Swissal was well beaten when fourth over today’s trip at Newcastle while Hic Bibi makes most appeal of the handicap newcomers.
