Shamardal colt whose dam was 7f/1m winner and half-sister to very smart winner up to 1m2½f Casual Conquest. Slowly in to stride so can be forgiven debut defeat at Leopardstown when last seen in May.

By Holy Roman Emperor out of a Stephen Got Even mare. Yard one from 19 with their juveniles and market likely to reveal expectations.

Frozen Power colt out of a Shirocco mare related to Eve Johnson Houghton's tough handicapper Ice Age. Possibly needed the run on debut when last seen in February and market likely to be the best guide.

Disappointing in a couple of starts to date but may have needed comeback run on return at the Galway festival earlier this month. Worth a market check.

Zoffany colt has shaped with promise in three starts so far over 5f/7f but found the step up to 1m beyond him when last seen in May. Gelded since and up against it here.

Elnadim half-brother to three winners. Showed a modicum of ability when down the field at the Galway festival on debut before disappointing in a Leopardstown 1m2f maiden on good to firm earlier this month. Vast improvement needed to figure.

Approve gelding out of a Groom Dancer mare. Cost €10,000 as a juvenile. First-time visor is a concern on belated racecourse debut. Others hold stronger profiles.

Son of Shamardal out of a Cherokee Run mare. Closely related to three winners including Face The Problem and recent Chelmsford winner Ummalnar. Watch for any market support.

Placed five times in 11 starts to date and showed appreciation for soft ground on several occasions but still a maiden and unlikely to get off the mark here.

Choisir colt, cost €38.000 as a yearling. Plenty of speed in his pedigree and half-brother to Smoothtalkinrascal and La Casa Tarifa. Well held on both starts to date and others preferred.

Filly by Born To Sea out of a Ivan Denisovich mare. Yard having a quiet time of things this season and best watched on debut.

Power filly, half-sister to five winners and dam a half-sister to a Group 2 winner over further. Well beaten and no impression on debut in a 1m maiden at the Curragh last month.

Filly by Shamardal out of an Indian Ridge mare. Half-sister to winners My Dream Boat and Marvel Hero, winner at Happy Valley. Market likely to be best guide on debut.

Acclamation filly, cost 32,000 gns as a yearling. Half-sister to a maiden winner over 1m and dam unraced. Plenty to like about promising debut run at Gowran Park in May when hampered at the start. One to consider.

Dark Angel half-sister to 1m winner Ever Yours, out of a maiden half-sister to smart 6f-1m winner Big Time. No impression under 2f out on debut at Tipperary over 7½f earlier this month.

Savitar (10/3), Shifted Strategy (7/2), Implement (11/2), King Of Leinster (7/1), Providence (15/2), Rue D'Antibes (12/1), Kashid (14/1), Crimson Mystery (20/1), Midnight Drummer (20/1), Paul Patterson (25/1), Paved Paradise (33/1), Ollie Bang (33/1), Banrion Fuar (33/1), Simmonscourt (33/1), Itsdacraic (40/1), Another Dressin (50/1)

Verdict

Those with experience appear to be struggling for form in the early parts of their career so it may be left to a couple of newcomers to make their marks here in a weak looking contest. The Ken Condon-trained Implement and SAVITAR from the Jim Bolger yard could battle to land the prize here, both related to speedy types. Paul Patterson in first time visor deserves attention while King Of Leinster looks the best of those with runs under their belts.
