Verdict

RIALTO MAGIC finally opened her account when scoring over track and trip last time having slipped down the weights. She won by a cosy two lengths and should confirm running with Jolly Red Jeanz. A few of the opposition have been threatening to win without actually doing so for some time now and that includes Foie Gras, Bogsnog and Ghost Train but Encapsulated has won two of his last four starts including a victory over course and distance and he could go well along with Ben Hall.
