In depth
Verdict
REBEL MAGIC is likely to start at very short odds for this but can't be realistically opposed after chasing home Bridge Night at Bath, the scene of her debut success. She's bred to stay this 7f. Downright Dizzie made her debut in the Chesham Stakes at Royal Ascot but was well beaten. She should improve, however, and looks a bigger threat than Luckster.
