Sans Logique was a shade keen on his hurdling debut here last month and made mistakes. But he still wasn’t beaten far and, with cheekpieces added today, the French import will be fancied to recoup losses. Kings Creek is improving with experience but dual Flat winner MAGNA MORALIA would not need to be anything special to make a winning start over timber. Genever Dragon and North Point were both maidens on the level and both are having a first run for new connections.
