Verdict

Those with previous experience look longer-term projects and this may well go to a newcomer. VALVANO and Tokyo Bay both make plenty of appeal on paper, with the former narrowly selected to come out on top. Mount Dukono is another debutant to monitor closely in the betting for positive vibes.

  1. VALVANO (IRE)
