14th in the Super Sprint at Newbury when last seen.
Prior to that has beaten Alabama by a neck in a listed race at Tipperary.
Carries a 3lb penalty here and more is needed.

Just touched off in a listed race at Tipperary last time behind Son of Corballis (now 3lb better with off that rival)
Beaten 4 lengths when 5th in the Windsor Castle the time before that behind Big Evs.
Still a maiden after 4 starts and he needs more if he is to break his duck here.

Won his maiden at the 2nd time of asking at Bellewstown.
Form doesn't add up to much and he needs to take another step forward to win this.

Finished 2nd behind Bucanero Fuerte (now a Group 1 winner) on debut and filled the same position next time behind another nice horse in Noche Magica.
Was disappointing when only 6th in a Maiden last time at Down Royal after a 76 day break and he might want softer ground to be seen at his best.

Got off the mark last time in a handicap at Cork on her 5th attempt.
A very consistent filly who has been placed on 3 of her 5 career starts.
Needs more to win this but she should run well.

Looked set to get off the mark at Dundalk 5 days ago before being mowed down late on.
Drop back to 5 furlongs looks certain to suit but another who is yet to win a race and needs to improve to take this.

Won on her debut at Dundalk in April. Had over 3 months off the track afterwards and has shown very little in two starts since.
Hard to totally dismiss given her connections but she shouldn't be winning this on what she has shown so far.

Showed real promise on her first 3 starts including when 2nd in a Group 2 to Matrika.
Her form seems to of tailed off since however and she needs to return to that early season form to win this.

Just touched off in a listed race on only her 2nd start when last seen.
Had got off the mark in good style on her debut when beating Asean at Naas.
This well bred filly is open to plenty of improvement for top connections and is versatile regards to ground.
