TUROYAL was beaten 24 lengths by The Liquidator at Exeter but that run will have taught him plenty and it would be no surprise if he proved good enough in this finale. Allow Dallow won a point-to-point at Dromahane in December and Louis Phillipe has also been successful between the flags while Chase The Spud and Sweet Like You have hinted at ability, though need more if they are to get off the mark. Sankyouplease may be the pick of the newcomers but that's not saying much.
