Verdict

MAGICAL VISION is very low-mileage for a 6-y-o and produced her best effort yet when runner-up in a C&D handicap on the back of 6 months off 24 days ago. Fresher than most she meets here, with conditions holding no fears, she earns the vote to go one place better. Siesta Beach, Polar Bear and Dagoda head up the threats, with Greek Flower another in the mix.

  1. MAGICAL VISION (IRE)
  2. SIESTA BEACH
  3. POLAR BEAR (IRE)
