Seeking Magic narrowly beat Acolyte and Steelriver to score at Kempton last time. Those three are hard to separate on that form and preference goes to Irish raider KASBAH (NAP). A runner-up at Dundalk before running well behind George Bowen in a hot sprint at the Curragh last month, Johnny Murtagh's colt is also preferred to Growl and Boomerang Bob as the latter pair drop in class. Extremity could bounce back at any time having slipped down the weights this year and looks best of the rest.
