MAGIC TRICKS was rated a good bit higher than 133 over hurdles and has shown plenty of encouragement over fences. It's likely that he's been primed for this and he's the one to side with for all that Barnacullia is of interest after a solid showing on the Flat here earlier in the week. Railway Hurricane is also worth considering.
