Verdict

The early betting suggests BLIXEN FORCE looks capable of making a big impact on debut and he's certainly bred for the job with his sire winning this in 2022 and his dam a sister to 2019 winner Show Me Show Me. Richard Hannon has won this twice in the last 4 years and A Bear Affair looks the pick of his 2 runners, while Dance A Jig is another likely type.

  1. BLIXEN FORCE (IRE)
  2. A BEAR AFFAIR (IRE)
  3. DANCE A JIG
