In depth

Verdict

Clemento has been hurdling but hasn’t looked the same horse since returning from injury. Phoenix Dawn has a very similar profile but Dream Magic shouldn’t be far away as he’s been going well on Tapeta this winter and was successful the last time he ran over course and distance. The weights point to a big run from SASSOON, who has yet to race beyond a mile but is bred for this sort of trip and drops into this grade for the first time.
