Verdict
WINDING STREAM looked a decent prospect when scoring on his racecourse debut at Southwell and the son of Almanzor makes plenty of appeal on his return to action. Magic Trip found the step up to Group 3 company too much when sent to Italy after winning his first start at Bath. This contest should see him in a better light, while Balzac is entitled to be in the mix after a promising run at Newmarket in September.
Expert View Verdict
There was a lot to like about BALZAC's debut third at Newmarket last September - that race has worked out well with wins for the fourth and sixth while the runner-up has been Group 3-placed and is now rated 101. He's got a nice pedigree and this looks a good opening on his return with both Winding Stream and Magic Trip carrying penalties. Of that pair Winding Stream is preferred after he made a promising start at Southwell although Magic Trip is taking a drop in grade having finished down the field in a Group 3 in Italy when last seen.
