Verdict

JUST JACOB and True Destiny are both fairly useful Flat performer who have been handed potentially lenient marks, so they're taken against the field on handicap debut. Most of the others have little chance, but Junior Bee deserves plenty of respect after her smooth-travelling third at Kilbeggan last time.

  1. INVIVO (FR)
  2. TRUE DESTINY
  3. JUNIOR BEE (IRE)
