Johnny Murtagh has three newcomers entered. Billy Lee's presence on board More Than Munny suggests he could be the stable pick and he's related to eight winners. Dermot Weld introduces Party Angel, a half-sister to a winning juvenile, while the presence of Kevin Manning on board Three River is interesting as his mount is by Excellent Art and the first foal of an all-weather winner. ROMAN IMPERO looks comfortably the best of those with experience. Michael Halford's charge showed the benefit of his debut run when chasing home Alphonsus in what looked a decent maiden here last month - he can improve again and will take some beating. Chewy Round Town was sent to Wolverhampton for his opening run and showed good pace for a long way before fading.
