Verdict

MAGICAL LAGOON showed improved form when narrowly denied in a Navan listed event on her reappearance and, with that form working out well, she's an appealing candidate, especially with her pedigree pointing towards further progress over this longer trip. Sea Silk Road and Life of Dreams are also very promising and rate big threats.

  1. MAGICAL LAGOON (IRE)
  2. SEA SILK ROAD (IRE)
  3. LIFE OF DREAMS
