A maiden that looks sure to throw up plenty of winners and it's HOTAZHELL who gets the vote having finished with running left when sent off favourite on debut at Leopardstown last month. Yamal was third (a place in front of the selection) that day, and he may well emerge as the main danger, with Swagman and Hill Road a couple of notable debutants, too.
