Verdict

The veteran Magical Effect is a dual course winner and wasn't suited by heavy ground at Pontefract. EY UP ITS JAZZ (NAP) gave notice of better to come with a good run here last month and duly obliged in good style at Leicester. He's only been raised 3lb so can go in again. Bold Territories completed a hat-trick last summer and made a promising return to action at Redcar while Sezaam has been slowly dropping to a winnable mark and showed a bit more dash at Pontefract last month. Josiebond pops up every now and then but generally needs a run.
