The Joseph O'Brien-trained Border Control is likely to be popular in the market following a promising fourth of 18 behind Black Key in a Listowel maiden hurdle on Monday but DUC D'ALLIER from the Henry De Bromhead yard was showing plenty of spark on his racecourse debut at Punchestown recently to make him a worthy selection here in the opener. Sizing Joshua who is expected to improve and Kings War can battle for the minors here.
