Born To Sea newcomer a half-brother to winners Think Fashion over 6f, Cameo Star successful between 5f as a juvenile 2yo and at 6f. Not much to shout about in a couple of career starts so far and easy to look elsewhere.

Gelding by Gutaifan out of a Barathea mare. Dam, below-par 12-race maiden on the Flat. Slight encouragement on second start at Gowran Park earlier this month but still a long way to go.

9/10
Colt by Galileo out of a Danehill Dancer mare. Closely related to three-time winner, The Gurkha, winner of the French 2,000 Guineas and Sussex Stakes as a three-year-old. Likely to improve on first start at Gowran Park last month.

4/1
Zoffany colt out of a Galileo mare. Dam was a once raced sister to the smart Lush Lashes. Solid couple of efforts at Down Royal and Roscommon last month. Likely to run well once again.

40/1
Acclamation colt. Full-brother to 6f-1m3f winner Allimac, and his sales price rose to €70,000 as a yearling. No impression after halfway on debut in a 1m maiden at the Curragh last month. Hard to fancy.

Has been down the field on his starts so far. He was last of 10 runners on his latest appearance at Limerick over the extended 6f trip. Others preferred.

Likely to build on a number of solid starts so far including finishing second of 12 beaten 3¼L at the Curragh last month. Yard struggled at this festival 12 months ago.

9/1
Daughter of Intense Focus out of a Teofilo mare. Half-sister to Fior Cliste winner over 7f. Dam winner between 7f and 1m2½f. No extra inside final furlong, weakening to finish eighth of 19 on debut at Cork over 6f earlier this month.

Forecasts

Louisiana (9/10), Shekhem (2/1), Maker Of Kings (4/1), Soineanta (9/1), Settle Me Down (33/1), Praise You (40/1), Dark Design (40/1), A Mere Bagatelle (100/1)

Verdict

LOUISIANA can step up on his third of 10 at Gowran Park on debut last month to land the opener here. The Galileo colt can hold off the attentions of the more experienced, Shekham who is likely to be the biggest danger. Beaten, but not disgraced on debut recently, Praise You and Soineanta can battle for the minor honours.
