Verdict

JAAFEL has run 2 promising races in AW maidens since switching to the Denis Hogan stable and can strike on handicap/turf debut under Colin Keane. The presence of Ryan Moore in the saddle suggests that a bold show is anticipated from Macadam's Rock so he's a must for the shortlist. The returning Princess Sela and the selection's stablemate Fox Leicester are others to consider.

  1. JAAFEL (IRE)
  2. MACADAM'S ROCK (IRE)
  3. PRINCESS SELA (IRE)
