Arlecchino's Gift won at Windsor last month but was due to run at Chepstow yesterday. Magic Gem has been winning classified races over 7f on the Tapeta while Jumira Bridge had YAAHOBBY back in third when scoring over track and trip in May. But the latter re-opposes on better terms and having ran well at Newcastle recently, he gets the vote to turn the tables in this. Struck Gold went close here last time and gets a change of headgear.
