Verdict
WOODSTOCK looks to have the strongest piece of form with a second at Southwell on his debut. He can go one better in this. Sea The Buckthorn also placed at Southwell when third over 7f while stablemate and newcomer Magnusson is related to several winners including the useful Aldaary. Scramble is more exposed and steps back up in trip while an apprentice takes 7lb off the back Margaret's Fuchsia.
