2.25 POPMASTER (IRE); 3.50 KATH'S TOYBOY; 4.00 TIGERHON (FR); 6.00 ZENZERO (IRE); 8.00 CAMASSIA (IRE); 11.00 AND BETTER OTHERS.
POPMASTER accounted for a decent field when making a winning introduction over C&D last month and Ed Walker's Gutaifan colt is clearly the one to beat, despite having to carry 7lb penalty for that victory. Kath's Toyboy and Tigerhon both hit the crossbar on debut and they are obvious threats to the selection, while Camassia and Zenzero complete the shortlist.
