R ace Summary

The Charlie Hills-trained MAGHLAAK gets the vote having caught the eye on his most recent run at Kempton last month. His pedigree very much gives the impression there is more to come and he remains the one to beat stepping up in distance. Jean Danjou makes plenty of appeal on paper, while Eljenob has shown plenty of promise since stepping up in trip and is another to note for a stable currently in excellent form. Win: MAGHLAAK Danger: Jean Danjou
