Horse A-Z
Decent efforts in finishing fourth on both starts to date most recently over 7f at Chelmsford earlier this month. Interesting runner for a trainer with a 44% strike-rate (4/9) with his runners at this venue.

Nine race maiden and one to note in this contest having finished runner-up over this C&D when making his seasonal debut just over two weeks ago.

Winner of a good ground bumper at Punchestown in May last year and fair form since then. Beaten 9L on Flat debut over an extended 1m2f here last month and drops in trip today.

Placed over C&D in October 2016 but struggled since being gelded last year and finished well beaten over hurdles at Fairyhouse last month.

Fair form in maiden company last year including when finishing fifth over an extended 1m2f here in November. Wears a tongue tie for the first time on stable debut.
Well held in two maiden races last April when trained by Joseph Murphy. Absent since and probably best watched on debut for a new stable today.

Dual winner over jumps and some decent efforts in handicap hurdle contests in 2017. Probably best watched on today's Flat debut.

Signs of ability when finishing fifth over C&D on debut earlier this month but likely to prove better suited to handicap contests in time.

Beaten favourite on sole start for Saeed bin Suroor last September and purchased for £25,000 by current connections subsequently. Good effort to finish third over C&D on stable debut last time and she is an interesting runner today.

Forecasts

Elysees Palace (11/10), Liberatio (7/2), Wedding Photo (6/1), Dayereh (13/2), Saga Altais (8/1), Los Alamos (12/1), Tomwontlisten (33/1), My Betty (40/1), Lace Bonnet (50/1)

Verdict

Trainer Sir Mark Prescott does well with his raiders to this venue and with the Newmarket handler boasting a 40% strike-rate (2/5) in recent times his ELYSEES PALACE can make his first start over this 1m distance a winning one in the hands of Declan McDonogh. Liberatio has gained plenty of experience and was narrowly beaten here last time out and he looks capable of finishing runner-up today while Wedding Photo, another to place here last time out can finish third.
