Forecasts

Palm Beach (10/11), Crassus (13/8), On Guard (4/1), Zoffanien (6/1), Willywampus (16/1), The Truant (28/1), Flylikeaneagle (28/1), Dazzling Darren (33/1), French Asset (40/1), Saga Malta (50/1), Southwood (50/1), Sweet Will (80/1)

Verdict

PALM BEACH had a positive profile on the Flat, shwoing fairly useful form when making his second start a winning one at Listowel (12f) in September. He's very much the type to make his mark over hurdles and gets the nod on debut for his new yard. Crassus and On Guard are others to consider.

  1. PALM BEACH (IRE)
  2. CRASSUS (IRE)
  3. ON GUARD
