Arcano gelding out of a Chineur mare related to money-spinning Arcanda, Thello and Just Glamorous. Yard are 48 from 504 with their three-year-old on turf in the last five years.
By Mayson out of a Mister Baileys mare, always towards the rear and finished last of 10 on debut before finishing eighth of 11 when last seen in September. Best watched on seasonal debut.
Fourth of nine runners n debut here when last seen in July finishing 7½L behind I Am Power on good to firm ground. Market possibly the best guide to chances.
Useful efforts in three 5f maiden at Naas last year, including on yielding ground in October. Promising third of 10 not beaten far on seasonal return here earlier in the month. Worth a market check.
Society Rock colt cost €12,000 as a yearling. Never a factor when 11½L eighth of 12 on debut over Down Royal over 7f before disappointing at Naas in October. Looks up against it here.
Improved on dismal debut at Leopardstown in June when signalling that he had 'trained-on' when finishing second of nine beaten ½L in a Cork maiden last month.
Bated Breath Gelding out of a Verglas mare racing in the colours of Group winners Sole Power and More Power. Market likely to be the best guide on debut.
Invincible Spirit colt out of a Acclamation mare related to the likes of Kingman, Vale Of York and recent Newmarket winner Porth Swtan. Market likely to reveal expectations.
Vocalised colt out of a Teofilo mare. Has the likes of Humidor and Trading Leather in his bloodline as well as Australian ace 7f to 1m2f Group winner Happy Clapper.
Most Improved filly out of a Kayrawan mare related to AW winner Ocean Voyage. Detached early on debut last month and needs to improve here.
Couple of promising efforts from five starts so far but well beaten over 1m at Naas in October. Better when last seen dropping in trip but more needed here.
Unraced 11th foal by Mayson out of Ermine. Cost 12,000 gns as a foal and is a half-sister to five winners including Top Lock and Chain Of Events. Held by the winner but showed plenty of promise when finishing second of 12 on debut this month.
Tough As Nails filly out of a Key Of Luck mare related to dual Group 1 winner Almashar. Looks a tough assignment on debut.
Beaten favourite when last seen in a Cork maiden over 1m on seasonal debut last month. Sure to come on for that run and one for the shortlist here .
Dream Ahead filly (€34,000 foal) who didn't appear to be anything out of the ordinary in a couple of 6f spins as a juvenile. 11th of 12 on seasonal debut earlier this month and will need to improve to figure.
Cityscape filly who fetched €60,000 as a juvenile, which represented a considerable mark up on her price as a foal. Promising fourth of 12 not beaten far on debut in a Naas maiden earlier this month and another bold show likely here.

Experience could be the key in this contest with the likes of Hawaam, Encantador and Summerseat Dream likely to be up with the leaders here in the early stages. The initial speed may set up a battle at the business end of the race between the consistent Ger Lyons-trained Shapes and the improving LUZUM who was second of nine on season debut at Cork last month.
