Verdict
One again punters are left guessing as to who will act in the ground. Mantuana was engaged to run at Beverley yesterday and if she doesn't turn up then MAGIC BOUNTY makes most appeal. A tardy start didn't help his cause at Thirsk last time, but today's going should slow down today's rivals and he'll be staying on at the finish. Lady Caprice won a seller at Catterick last month with Justine Time behind and the latter has since ran well again in plating company, while a second at Southwell is Roy's Legacy's best effort and he could figure on that form.
