Alpha Delta Whisky has pace on the dam's side of the pedigree as she was a multiple winner over this sort of trip, but John Gallagher's colt may need a run or two to open the pipes. CARRIGNAVAR cost $35,000 as a foal and this half-sister to US winner Totally Gone comes from a yard with a 50% strike-rate here this year. She gets the vote to win on debut but if she fails to find the ability on the first time of asking then Quadra Hop and Henrys Air are suggested as alternatives. The former has been prominent until fading late on in his two starts to date whilst Henrys Air has put in more appealing performances on the all-weather.
