Several of these look likely to do better when handicapping, while others will be making their debuts so ready preference is for Irish import KION, who won well on debut for this yard and ran into a nice sort at Wolverhampton on Saturday. Kodiac Princess has shown enough to suggest she will be involved in the finish, while Jaalboot could reach the frame on his debut for this stable. Jungle Room is worth keeping an eye on with a view to the future.
