Verdict

A host in with chances but THE TACK ROOM is surely capable of better than he's shown so far in this sphere so he gets the nod to make a winning handicap debut. Gordon Elliott's Fierami is another handicap debutant worth noting so he heads up the dangers, with Ballyadam Destiny, Allbarone and Lizrona another few worth considering.
