Verdict

All of them have claims on best but hard to go past MONTJUIC MAGIC (5) who was having her first start in this area for the new yard and was immediately off the mark. The former Victorian led throughout for a strong win and is drawn to take catching again. GALAXY GENERAL (6) is another on speed horse who was going well prior to last start when fading out of it in a run well off best. Drops nicely in the weights. Worth another chance. CAP TEN (1) is another coming off a poor run which was off a let-up and back in trip. Extra ground a plus and can improve sharply. I LOVERAIN (3) goes well here and looks a leading player in this line-up fresh. ITWASONLYAKISS (4) also resumes and will be winding up late.
