PARAMOUR finished runner-up at Thirsk on his belated racecourse debut and a winner has already come out of the race. David O'Meara's charge had Painted Tail well behind and is just preferred to Lady Sledmere. The latter also shaped well on her debut over C&D and should improve past To The Spring, who was placed in a handicap on her latest start. Takhreej and Tadabeer are others likely to step up on their debut efforts, while Bash On is a half-brother to Group winner Art Connoisseur and could prove best of the newcomers.
