All racecards for Friday 4th September
We said2nd of 11, beaten 1¼ at 9/1
MIGHTY MAGNUS 11/1
MIGHTY MAGNUS at 11/1, Michael Dods and Connor Beasley, is the one that stands out. He won by 1.25 lengths and escapes a penalty, leaving 3.8lb in hand, gets a trip he has won over and has a telling booking — a rider who has won on it before returns, upgrade from a 5% rider to 11%.
The dangers are SPOOF at 22/1 (went close off this mark) and CHANGEOFMIND at 7/1 (went close off this mark).
