Has shown promise in a couple of maidens but appears to be taking on much stronger rivals this time.

4/1
Off the track since a couple of solid efforts last May. The fitting of blinkers for her return is a concern.
Half-sister to six winners including a few speedy types. Stable have a five year record of 2-63 so it would be a surprise if she was good enough to bet some of these on debut.

33/1
Daughter of Cape Cross out of a 1m2f winner on the AW. Down the field on debut over an inadequate trip and she cannot be dismissed lightly with yard 2-4 in last two weeks.

Elusive Pimpernel half-sister to five winners who were all successful over longer trips than this. Best watched on debut.

Dandy Man filly cost €90,000 as a yearling and looked set to justify market confidence on debut until worn down close home. Winner has scored again since and current form of yard enhances her prospects.

Half-sister to five winners who were all effective at around this trip. Highly tried on debut and stable's runners improve for a run.

1/1
Daughter of Galileo purchased for 2,100,000 gns and holds entries on the Irish 1,000 Guineas and Oaks. Has a long way to go reach those heights but she is more than capable of landing a maiden at this level.

52,000 gns daughter of Kodiac and related to three winners including two effective at this trip. Stable have hit form but Elegant Drama looks their main hope.

12/1
Mastercraftsman filly who cost €100,000 as a yearling. Half-sister to a couple of classy individuals at around this trip and there was a lot to like about her recent debut. The extra furlong helps and she has place prospects.
Raven's Pass half-sister to seven winners who were effective from 5f-1m4f. In good hands and although she will probably come good one day, it is more likely to be at a future date.

Half-sister to a winner on the continent and useful winning hurdler Jenkins. Faces a stiff task on debut and others look more likely.

Godolphin half-sister to seven winners including Listed winners Champlain and Calare, Ustura, and AW winnerSovereignty; dam 7f and 1m (Group 3) winner out of an Oaks heroine. Bred to be smart and needs to be monitored in the ring.

Forecasts

Hence (1/1), Elegant Drama (9/4), Could It Be Love (4/1), Wishing Star (6/1), Redhawk (12/1), Kodi Koh (25/1), Terzetto (33/1), Debatable (33/1), Rise Over Cloud (33/1), Columbia Kid (50/1), Gala N Dandy (66/1), Echo Park (66/1), Aasleagh Fawn (66/1), Survival Mode (100/1), Dathuil Dearg (100/1)

Verdict

Hence sets a solid standard on form and should have little difficulty in picking up a maiden. Wishing Star is another who is bred for the job and appears to have races in her judged on a promising debut. Both face ELEGANT DRAMA who was heavily backed on debut and was only thwarted by a more experienced rival who won again next time. If improving only a fraction on that form she will take all the beating and her yard have been in good form recently. Redhawk was another to shape well on debut and Terzetto is nicely bred debutante in what looks an above average contest.
