Forecasts

Duhallow Tommy (11/4), Saladins Son (4/1), Centara (5/1), Range (5/1), Rock House (5/1), I Got Stung (8/1), Hammer Dan (9/1), Light Sentence (11/1), Uggy Uggy Uggy (25/1), Pigeon Hill (33/1), Captain Bill (33/1), Malago Rose (80/1), West Hill Moth (80/1), Mini Mildred (150/1)

Verdict

This may well go to one of the likely-looking newcomers, with SALADINS SON possibly the pick of them. He fetched £95,000 after winning a maiden point in December and has joined a respected yard. Rock House, also successful on his sole start between the flags, is another appealing type, while Centara and Hammer Dan both need a close looking in the betting. Range is very much the pick of those with experience under Rules and merits respect, too.

  1. SALADINS SON (IRE)
  2. ROCK HOUSE (IRE)
  3. CENTARA (IRE)
