Top Moon (1/3), Zayriyan (10/3), Sharg (6/1), Its My Deal (14/1), Inner Spirit (20/1), Mind Your Step (25/1), Galros Jimmy (25/1), Pari Passu (25/1)

Verdict

TOP MOON performed well when placed in a much better race than this on hurdles debut and he can get off the mark with victory in this maiden contest. The selection hails from a top yard and he can see off his rivals here with the experienced Zayriyan looking capable of claiming second spot ahead of Sharg who ran well when fifth on his latest start.
