50/1

Sir Prancelot gelding out of a Pearl Of Love mare. Related to multiple winner Goodwood Crusader and Sir Dancealot. Yard 0/7 in the last 14 days and market likely guide to debutante's chances.

12/1

Ineffective debut when eighth of 17 beaten over 7L at Fairyhouse. May have needed the run and can only improve here.

11/4

Finished a solid second of 14 here recently over 6f being a neck adrift of the winner. Shapes like the colt will appreciate the step up in trip.

Ran well for a time last time out here earlier this month before weakening over a furlong out. Tough ask and others preferred.

River Boyne¹⁰⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Chris Hayes| T: G Elliott

7/1

Finished over 12L behind U S Navy Flag on debut at the Curragh in July when sixth of 12. Sure to come on for that appearance and not to be underestimated.

Viscount Wilson¹⁸

9/2

Eased when beaten on debut at Roscommon last month finishing over 9L behind the winner. Yard back in flying form.

Forecasts

Andesh (5/4), Man Power (11/4), Viscount Wilson (9/2), River Boyne (7/1), Insignia Of Rank (12/1), Namazee (28/1), Antonio Carnicero (50/1), Most Impressive (100/1)

ANDESH is taken to grab the lead moving across from stall six under Pat Smullen and make all in the opener. The promising Michael O'Callaghan-trained Man Power can give the selection the most to think about while Viscount Wilson will possibly be doing his best work late on.
