The betting should prove informative with several of these Rules debutants but preference is for RICES POOL, who fetched €92,000 as a 3-y-o and represents a yard synonymous with bumper success. Roximan was disappointing in a listed bumper at Cheltenham in January but can build on his debut promise at the second attempt, while Par Avion could well take off with his debut effort under his belt.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: The pace doesn’t look like being overly strong here and Roximan should still be served best by being ridden prominently: The forecast decent pace still isn’t likely to sway the advantage towards those usually ridden further back such as is Teletime.
Individual Price Hint: Roximan has traded at 50% or less of Betfair SP twice on its last 2 starts.
