Roundabout Magic won over the minimum trip here recently but has done all his winning over 5f so far. Ghepardo remains 6lb higher than when scoring over today’s trip at Kempton last month and TOMSHALFBROTHER won off an 8lb lower mark at Chelmsford in March. But the latter has an apprentice’s allowance in his favour today and having been beaten only a length over course and distance last time, Bob Cowell’s charge gets another chance. Seprani has something to find with the selection while Cappananty Con beat Toolatetodelegate over 5f at Bath earlier in the month.
