Verdict
Crown And Glory, Golden Calf and Kilcooley are all promising recruits from the point-to-point field. But a couple of the debutants are bred to win races including Ocean Waves, a half-brother to useful hurdler/chaser Ninetieth Minute, and UTOPIAN. The former may be one for the future but the latter should have plenty of speed as he's by Rock Of Gibraltar and a half-brother to a winning miler. Rose Dobbin does well here with her bumper horses so he gets the vote.
