Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: R P Downey⁽³⁾| T: K H Clarke

12/1

Just the two runs behind her, didn't shape badly in seventh of 14 in maiden over this C&D 23 days ago. More required.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Leigh Roche| T: M O'Callaghan

33/1

Society Rock filly whose dam was a 6f winner as a two-year-old. Acquired for small money but merits market check on debut.

Cross Cover¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Gavin Ryan⁽⁷⁾| T: D H Kelly

100/1

Inauspicious debut when tenth of 11 over C&D earlier this month, will have to improve markedly to play a forward role.

Elegant Drama

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Colin Keane| T: G M Lyons

4/6

Dandy Man filly cost €90,000 as a yearling and represents top yard with champion jockey on board. Plenty going for her on paper ahead of debut run.

50/1

Well held both maidens so far, initially on turf over 7½f on soft at Roscommon and last month over this C&D when sent off 66/1 and posing no threat.

Greengage^t1¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Shane Foley| T: J J Murphy

5/1

Choisir filly took a big leap forward on third start, finishing runner-up over C&D on AW bow having gone off a 100/1 rank outsider. That effort sets the standard.

Form: 002

Hen Party

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Rory Cleary| T: T Cleary

100/1

Arakan filly, dam was a maiden, makes debut this evening and others amongst the newcomers are holding stronger claims.

High Susie¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: S Corby⁽³⁾| T: J P O'Brien

25/1

A €5,000 foal by Zebedee, with plenty stamina in her pedigree. Not given a hard time over C&D on debut recently, may need further to be seen to best effect.

Form: 7

(11)

Jazzy Red Dancer

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Ross Coakley⁽³⁾| T: G Keane

100/1

A half-sister to two-year-old 7f winner Zepnove and winner up to 1m Nalini Malani, makes debut this evening and market can act as a guide to what is expected.

Form:

(3)

Princess Yaiza³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Ronan Whelan| T: G P Cromwell

11/2

Casamento filly, didn't run badly in 6f heavy-ground Fairyhouse maiden last month on second start. AW bow and cannot be ruled out completely, will have to improve.

Form: 93

(14)

Santal

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Chris Hayes| T: P D Deegan

33/1

Big Bad Bob filly whose dam was a winner over a mile at two-years-old. Yard without a winner on the AW in 2017.

Sovereigns Rock

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Nathan Crosse⁽⁷⁾| T: P F McEnery

66/1

Society Rock filly cost 18,000 as a yearling, is a half-sister to smart winner up to 7f Squats, amongst others, and worth paying attention to on debut.

Form:

Raven's Hat^p1²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: N G McCullagh| T: J M Oxx

10/1

By Ravens Pass out of Dubai Millennium mare, not overly tried in 7f maiden (soft) at Leopardstown on debut. Cheekpieces on now and should have more to give (First Reserve).

Forecasts

Elegant Drama (4/6), Greengage (5/1), Princess Yaiza (11/2), Raven's Hat (10/1), Lappet (10/1), Aishling's Secret (12/1), Taylor Velvet (16/1), High Susie (25/1), Cantstoptherock (33/1), Santal (33/1), Extremely (50/1), Red Robin Rock (50/1), Sovereigns Rock (66/1), Sarah Kate (100/1), Hen Party (100/1), Cross Cover (100/1), Jazzy Red Dancer (100/1)

GREENGAGE belied odds of 100/1 over C&D last time to run a stormer in second and she deserves plenty respect now as a result. That piece of form sets the standard and, if she builds on it, the daughter of Choisir can go one better now. The newcomer Elegant Drama is an obvious danger for leading trainer and jockey and any significant money behind her will be worth noting. Those that have run don't set and exacting standard, so Lappet and Sovereigns Rock may be worth keeping an eye on.
