PALIXANDRE showed up well when runner-up under a positive ride in a much stronger race than this at Catterick last time, so he's well capable of opening his account for this stable if he can build on it in first-time cheekpieces. Tortuga Bay makes some appeal back over fences and Frankie Ballou should benefit from the return to this track, so are feasible dangers.
