Verdict

MUKHA MAGIC does most of his winning on the Fibresand and took advantage of a slide down the weights to score easily over 1m4f earlier in the week. A 5lb penalty is unlikely to stop him going close once again. Caribeno has yet to race on this surface but has a shout on last month’s victory at Lingfield with this extra distance expected to suit while Little India finished closer here a week ago but has just the one win in 17 attempts on the all-weather. Royal Cosmic slips further down the weights and Temur Khan has past form here but remains out of sorts.
