Race preview
Having got the better of reopposing second Battle Fever to make a winning debut at Beverley, PALM READER looks capable of shouldering a 7lb penalty. Declan Carroll's colt scored with something in hand and there should be more to come on just his second outing. The aforementioned runner-up is the obvious danger, although market support for newcomer Red Blue Point would be interesting.
