NOCHE MAGICA created a very good impression on his Cork debut last month and can confirm he's a smart prospect. Bucanero Fuerte also arrives on the back of a promising debut success and looks the chief threat unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding Aidan O'Brien newcomers His Majesty and/or Unquestionable.

  1. NOCHE MAGICA (IRE)
  2. BUCANERO FUERTE
  3. HIS MAJESTY (IRE)
