White Guard⁶¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-3| J: Rory Cleary| T: J J Hanlon

50/1

Gelded son of Frankel who has had the one run so far which came in September 2017 when he finished third of eight runners at Leicester (7f). May need the run.

Azakan

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: O J Orr| T: D K Weld

16/1

Shamardal gelding whose dam is an unraced half-sister to Azamour. Respected as it is well-bred and from a strong yard. Look out for market support.

Bitcoin Boy¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Gary Halpin| T: J Feane

12/1

Respectable opening start at Navan (1m2f) last month where he ran green when finishing fifth of 12 runners. Will come for his opening run. One to watch.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Gary Carroll| T: R Donohoe

100/1

Has been well-beaten on his two starts so far, including on his latest outing when last of 12 runners at Cork (1m). Hard to make a case for.

Chicargo

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Robbie Colgan| T: D Kinsella

100/1

Jet Away gelding whose dam was a 1¼m winner. May need this experience on debut. Others preferred today.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Killian Leonard⁽³⁾| T: D Kinsella

100/1

Last of 18 runners on sole start at Naas (6f) last September. Going to need a huge improvement on that opening start to be in the mix here.

Edessann²³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Chris Hayes| T: D K Weld

12/1

Produced a solid debut run at this course when third of 11 runners last August. Was unable to follow that up at Tipperary (1m1f) on his second outing. Open to more improvement. One to watch.

Formal Order¹²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Shane Foley| T: J P Murtagh

10/1

Ran twice so far on the AW. Was fourth of 13 runners on debut at Dundalk (1m), while next time he was second of just three runners at Newcastle (1m). Stable in form. Has to be respected.

Form: 42

Franklyn²²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Leigh Roche| T: A A Howard

50/1

Came home in midfield on his debut in a big runner field at Leopardstown (1m). May need the run as he hasn't appeared since his opening start last October.

Globe Theatre^p1⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D O'Brien| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 80

5/1

Ran in the Irish 2000 Guineas last month which was won by Phoenix Of Spain. Well-bred and this is a good opportunity for him to break his maiden.

Form: 04-50

Tipping Point

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: A McNamara

33/1

Dawn Approach gelding whose dam is a sister to Youmzain. May just need the run for experience but keep an eye out for any market support.

Tracker Saga¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: K J Manning| T: J S Bolger| OR: 78

10/1

Was second here over 1m two starts back. Ran seventh of 14 runners on latest start at Leopardstown (1m). Lightly-raced so open to improvement but others preferred.

Form: 4827

Up Helly Aa²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Billy Lee| T: W McCreery

4/6

Finished second on his debut at Cork (1m2f) last month in a promising run. The Galileo colt was finishing his race strongly on debut so a lot is expected here from him.

Form: 2

Forecasts

Up Helly Aa (4/6), Globe Theatre (5/1), Formal Order (10/1), Tracker Saga (10/1), Bitcoin Boy (12/1), Edessann (12/1), Azakan (16/1), Tipping Point (33/1), Franklyn (50/1), White Guard (50/1), Arizona Boy (100/1), Castlegrove (100/1), Cuchonnact Maguire (100/1), Chicargo (100/1)

UP HEALLY AA made a very promising start to his career last time at Cork where he was beaten by less than a length and staying on strongly. He will have learned a lot from that experience so he sets the standard here. Azakan is well-bred and has to be respected, especially if there is market support behind him, while Globe Theatre will have a much easier task than the Irish 2000 Guineas he contested last time.
