    Race Analysis

    MAGICAL MERLOT (4) placed twice from three attempts to date after a promising 1. 5L second in a 7f novice event at Southwell AW two weeks ago. Can improve further rising in journey. Big chance. ONLY IN MANILA (5) showed plenty of potential debuting 0. 75L second in a Southwell AW maiden over this distance last month. Progress expected second up. Makes appeal. QUARTER (1) produced a winning debut a month ago scoring by 0. 75L a 7f maiden here. Proven at this course which looks a big advantage. Bold showing likely. CAPE FEAR (2) is a two-year-old colt representing the Andrew Balding yard. Profiles well being by Kameko from Cape Spirit. Interesting newcomer.
