Interestingly bred Zoffany gelding out of a Galileo mare. Related to multiple winners Washington DC, Ventura Storm and Tuesday Chepstow winner Zoraya. Looks a tall order on debut.
By Footstepsinthesand out of a Danehill mare, related to French colt Hesham, Hong Kong winner Beauty Flame and Royal Ascot second Kapersky. Tough ask on debut.
Has been improving with promise on every run including second of 15 last time out in Roscommon maiden on heavy over 7f when beaten favourite. Won't mind the large field and sure to go well again.
Has been putting in second-rate performances since given his original handicap mark. Others hold stronger profiles.
Choisir colt out of a Kyllachy mare related to money-spinners Obviously, Olympic Glory and Coventry stakes winner Rajasinghe. Looks a tall order on debut.
Has beaten one rival home in five career starts and requires a chunk of improvement here and is best passed over.
Solid and genuine second of 12 on debut when last seen in October at in a Naas maiden over 6f. From powerful yard and can be expected to improve.
Finished fourth of eight when making her debut over 7f at Fairyhouse inJuly. Not given a hard time on that occasion and interesting to see how she performs today in first-time tongue-tie.
Improved on first three modest performances to finish fourth of 11 in a 1m Killarney handicap when last seen in May. Yard having a fine season and the Godolphin owned filly will need a check in the betting.
Has been running well without winning including beaten favourite last time out in a 5f maiden at the Curragh. Can go well but may find the company a little hot.
First Samurai filly, cost $90,000 as a yearling and impressed on debut when chasing home Hydrangea over 7f at the Curragh last year but has completely lost her way since and hard to see what improvement first-time visor will bring.
Makfi filly cost €11,000 as a yearling and was slowly away on debut in a 1m maiden at the Curragh sent off at 50/1. Others make more appeal here.

Forecasts
Invincible Ryker (13/8), Littlevix (10/3), Focus On Heaven (4/1), Hushing (15/2), Tush (12/1), Hark (14/1), Tide Of Time (14/1), Madame Cherie (25/1), Look Of Love (25/1), Kendwar (33/1), Dream Invader (33/1), For Real (50/1), Dunleer (100/1)
INVINCIBLE RYKER can finally get off the mark by holding off any late advances - notably Focus On Heaven - to lose his maiden tag under regular pilot Pat Smullen. The Godolphin runner from the Willie McCreery yard, Hushing is an improving sort, while the game Littlevix can battle for the minor honours.
