Yard capable of getting one ready first time and this son of Casamento could be capable of winning a race. Market should indicate what's expected on debut.
Improved from first outing when good runner-up at Tipperary last time and that experience should count for plenty against a host of unraced newcomers.
Doesn't make too much appeal on breeding and, despite yard going through a good spell, looks an unlikely debut winner.
£100,000 gelded son of Bated Breath makes his racecourse debut here. Related to a few winners but doesn't jump off the page. Any market interest would be worth noting though.
Tired in softish ground on debut here last October but with that experience under his belt looks the type to do better this time around, although it may be in handicaps.
Yard not known for debut winners and this Poet's Voice gelding's pedigree doesn't particularly appeal. Might find this a tough racecourse baptism.
So You Think colt whose dam is sister to a Japanese Group 1 winner. Caught the eye with a fine first effort when 3rd at Leopardstown recently and, granted normal improvement, is very much one for the short list.
Gelded son of star miler Footstepsinthesand. Made little impression on racecourse bow when only 11th at Dundalk last September and much better is needed here.
Interesting French pedigree with dam being a granddaughter of the legendary miler Miesque. Fairly cheaply bought though so may need time to show his worth.
Ran off the track on debut and finished last on only subsequent start. Not credentials that shout "winner" in this company.
Very cheaply bought daughter of Doyen. Dam was a winning hurdler and pedigree suggests she will need time to reach her peak.
Clodovil filly who has shown plenty of ability in finishing runner-up on both starts so far at Naas. Caught close home last time over seven furlongs and connections rely on extra distance helping their cause.
Took quite a grip on racceourse bow last autumn and duly faded when push came to shove at the business end of the race. Needs to settle better to have any chance here.
Full sister to Irish 1000 Guineas runner-up Just The Judge. Noted making steady late ground in big field on debut last backend and should win a race this term. Market should indicate what's expected.
Fast Company filly out of unplaced NH mare. Makes very little appeal on breeding and expected to find these going too fast for her on debut.

Forecasts
So You Thought (9/4), Cloistered (5/2), Faradays Law (6/1), Mystic Traveller (8/1), Kendwar (8/1), Mabaady (14/1), Casemates Square (16/1), Waterboy (25/1), Cracking Name (25/1), Twin Star (25/1), Thunder Crash (33/1), Leven (33/1), Gin Rocks (50/1), Are You Serious (50/1), Newlands Voice (66/1), Wee Jock (66/1)
SO YOU THOUGHT is marginally preferred to Cloistered in an interesting event. The selection shaped with plenty of promise on debut and can now put that experience to good use. Cloistered has gone close on both starts to date showing plenty of ability and should be in the thick of the action again. Faradays Law, Twin Star and Mystic Traveller are other to keep an eye on, along with Andrew Slattery's Kendwar.
