Verdict
Those with racecourse experience make no appeal and the betting may offer some clues as to the chances of the newcomers. AUTONOMOUS CLOUD cost €110,000 as the first foal of a winning hurdler and chaser and gets a speculative vote while Fame And Concrete is a half-brother to a bumper winner and Might I is related to a couple of bumper winners including the useful Binge Drinker. Clear On Top and Barbarian are others to keep an eye on.
