Light Pillar (1/1), Kerosin (2/1), Sharjah (4/1), Strong Force (12/1), Important Message (20/1)

Verdict

Three of the five runners are represented by owner/trainer James McAuley all three formerly with trainer-Saeed bin Suroor with the pick of the three possibly Kerosin who had solid Polytrack form in France. Another French import LIGHT PILLAR could take all the beating here on stable debut for the Joseph O'Brien yard while C&D winner Sharjah can fill third place.
