Verdict

Closing Time is a 50,000-euro newcomer representing the Nicky Henderson yard and, as a son of Blue Bresil, he is one to watch at this level. Olly's Icon showed ability when third at Warwick and also makes the shortlist, but FAITHFUL GUARDIAN could be the one. Second on his Ludlow debut before finishing eighth in Listed company at Cheltenham for Alan King, he might prove too good on his first start for Donald McCain.

Top Tip: Faithful Guardian (4)
Watch out for: Olly's Icon (7)

OLLY'S ICON was green under pressure on debut but still managed to grab a place and is expected to come on for that initial experience. He can defeat Faithful Guardian who was outclassed last time but finished runner up on debut in a race which has worked out well. Closing Time and Turbogeist appeal most of the newcomers and are worth following in the betting.
