Verdict

QUINCY MAGOO kept on in a slightly better race over 3m at Fakenham earlier this month. It may be worth taking a chance that his stamina holds out over this longer trip as Landscape was only third over 2m here last time and has never raced beyond 2m6f before. Minella Gathering also still has his stamina to prove while cheekpieces didn’t do much for Simply Blessed at Sedgefield last time and a visor is tried here. The remainder are even harder to fancy on recent form.
