NAZIK is penalised for an earlier win at Chepstow. That victory came on soft ground and David Evans’ colt may well get the better of Mister Blue Sky on today’s forecast going. The latter was placed here on good to firm a fortnight ago and will go close if handling the surface while Ivor's Magic is partnered by a 7lb claimer and could prove best of the newcomers ahead of The Batham Boy and Copa Beech.
