Verdict

Perhaps one of the handicap newcomers can take a step forward, with GLASGOW DAN the suggestion after catching the eye in a couple of his qualifying runs. Desert Cave and Darcy's Friend are other handicap debutants to monitor closely in the market, while Shark Hanlon's Mullins Cross should also be competitive on the back of a decent effort at Downpatrick recently.

  1. GLASGOW DAN (IRE)
  2. DESERT CAVE (IRE)
  3. DARCY'S FRIEND (IRE)
