Twist Magic may go off way too short for most punters and MANSONY (Ascot, 1.45) can provide a value alternative.
The Irish raider will have no problems with the testing going and returns to England in decent form, having lowered the colours of Nickname at Leopardstown after Christmas. That was a fine performance and all the better for the speed figure recorded, which was excellent. He did make bit of a mess of the last but he stayed on powerfully to repel the smart runner-up. Judging by the weather forecast, the Ascot going could be pretty messy by race time, but the nine-year-old has the power and pace to go through the mud and looks a cracking bet at 4-1.

ATEPHOBIA (Lingfield, 12.45) finished just behind Lord Deevert here ten days ago but the placings can be reversed on Saturday. That was in a three-runner affair and the bigger field can help matters this time. The yard is in top form and revenge can be gained.

BOOMTOWN (Lingfield, 2.25) was the subject of a failed gamble on Wednesday but there were excuses and he was an unlucky loser. No mistakes are expected this afternoon.
