Disappointed in a couple of maiden hurdles towards the end of the year before a promising second of nine beaten a neck in a Fairyhouse bumper in February. Others make more appeal dropping in trip for Flat debut.
Already gelded son of Elusive Quality. Cost €70,000 as a yearling. Half-brother to 5f/6f two-year-old winner Capella Sansevero. Likely to come on for the experience on debut.
Thewayyouare gelding who never made it to the track for trainer Jamie Osborne. Second of 15 on stable debut in a Listowel maiden on heavy ground in September. Running well over hurdles over the winter and possible best watched in the market.
Beaten 9L into eighth on debut behind Astronomer who has since won a handicap easily off a mark of 87, before finishing behind Sir Erec at the Curragh when last seen in August. Impossible to leave off the shortlist given the form of the yard.
Second of 15 beaten a neck behind Naadheer when making the race as a reserve in a Naas 1m4f maiden when last seen in November. Form of that race has disappointed but still worthy of consideration.
Gelding by Dawn Approach out of a Danehill mare. Half-brother to a number of winners, Jackhammer and Raven Banner among them. Running well in defeat on the AW at Dundalk in a couple of starts since February but more needed here.
Colt by Frankel out of a Marju mare. Half-brother to U S 1m/1m½f winner Alsinaafy. Yard flying at the moment, but colt may need a couple of runs following belated debut here.
Mastercraftsman colt that cost 32,000 gns as a foal and rose to 50,000 gns as a yearling. Disappointed on debut in a Lingfield 1m2f on sole start for trainer Ralph Beckett. Race has produced multiple winners Wissahickon and Knight Errant.
By Zebedee out of a Quest For Fame mare. Brother to 7f AW two-year-old winner Latest Quest. Unlikely to be a good sign he is already gelded on debut.
Declaration Of War colt, cost 30,000 gns as a yearling. Half-brother to three winners including a Group 3. Dam Listed placed over this trip. Requires a chunk of improvement from two initial starts to date.
Won a handicap hurdle here in January over 2m4f beating 18 rivals 6L. Well held on second start on the Flat at Naas last month behind Still Standing. Easy to look elsewhere.
Daughter of Big Bad Bob out of a Galileo mare. Dam placed over 7f - 1m2½f. Likely to need the experience on debut.
Useful 100-rated handicap hurdler but handed a difficult assignment on Flat turf debut and the Mustameet mare is unlikely to be playing a part in the finish.
Vocalised filly out of a Diktat mare. Half-sister to winners Ezra Church, Grey Danube and Enchanteresse. Tough ask on debut and others hold stronger profiles.
Ran well as a juvenile and was not disgraced in a number of starts at three. Caught the eye when finishing third of 16 behind impressive Navan victor Bobby Boy last month. Leading player.
Casamento filly, cost 15,000 gns as a foal and 5,000 gns as a yearling. Has found it a bitter struggle in bumpers and four hurdle starts to date. Unlikely to see mush change now trying the Flat for the first time.
Not disgraced in six starts on the Flat in France for trainer Francis-Henri Graffard running well in defeat on a number of occasion but only fetched €3,000 at the Goffs November sales. Looks a long term prospect.

The yard of Dermot Weld is in fine form right now and his JASSAAR can build on his debut behind Astronomer who has since won a handicap easily off a mark of 87, and when finishing behind Sir Erec at the Curragh when last seen in August. The Ger Lyons Naas second Johnny Drama looks a clear second best in this contest while, Minnie Haha for trainer Jessica Harrington and the intriguing French import, Telepathy look each-way propositions.
