        In depth

        Verdict

        Magic Glade, Oranmore Castle and Moorhouse Lad are the three for the shortlist, with Magic Glade the selection. Oranmore Castle won over the course and distance two weeks ago but has gone up four pounds as a result. He may find others better treated. Moorhouse Lad ran well from a wide draw at Epsom last time and has only gone up a couple of pounds for that solid effort. He doesnt have the best of the draw here either and that may prove his downfall. Three times a winner on the all-weather, Magic Glade ran well from a poor draw, leading until the closing stages at Lingfield last time. He is still attractively weighted, and the best drawn of the principlas, he can make good use of his early pace. Magic Glade is the selction.
