Little to choose between three of the four with racecourse experience, with Kevin Ryan's Red Clubs colt, Red Paladin, narrowly preferred after a satisfactory recent effort on soft ground at Hamilton over this trip. However, the form level is relatively ordinary and it would not surprise if one of the newcomers proves up to the task first time out. The choice is MAJESTIC MOON, a 55,000gns son of Majestic Missile from the Richard Fahey yard that enjoyed such a splendid weekend and which has a good strike rate with juveniles at this venue. Parisian Prince is another interesting newcomer, whilst Red Style and Teetotal are in with a shout too.
