In depth

Verdict

Placed in all three starts in maiden races, Paris Magic steps up in trip on his first start since May. He should figure but RASMEE may have the edge on him in this given the latter went close over today’s trip at Kempton recently. Song Of Namibia disappointed last time having shown promise over a mile on his earlier debut at Haydock. But it’s too soon to write him off and the same comment applies to Royal Flag, having only his third start of the year and dropping down a grade. However, the remaining trio look up against it.
