50/1

Nothing of note in three starts for trainer William Haggas including a couple of below-par efforts over 6f on turf last month. Market likely to reveal expectations on stable debut.

8/1

Camacho colt out of a Barathea mare. Has appeared overwhelmed in a couple of career starts so far. Never a factor on debut over 7f at this venue last month. Easy to look elsewhere.

12/1

€50,000 purchase as a two-year-old by Tagula out of an unraced mare. Far from disgraced in a couple of career starts on the AW at Chelmsford and Kempton for trainer Shaun Keightley in September. Bold bid on the cards.

25/1

Daughter of Ivawood out of a Pulpit mare. Slowly into stride on debut at this venue over 7f last week when never a factor finishing a well beaten 8L. More needed on second start.

Elusive Spirit^b1³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: N G McCullagh| T: J R Barry

66/1

Well held in three career starts on turf so far. First time blinkers unlikely to bring about the required amount of improvement needed to play a role on top of unfavourable draw.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: C P Hoban| T: P J Flynn

33/1

Forecasts

Big Gossey (13/8), Bombshell (9/4), Red Beacon (8/1), Tinkerbells Effect (10/1), San Juan (12/1), Sampers Seven (25/1), Johan The Great (25/1), All About Ivy (25/1), Secret Sacrament (25/1), Hija De La Luna (33/1), Chanell Eclipse (33/1), Illetas (33/1), Life And Strife (33/1), Passing Nod (50/1), Max's Dandy (50/1), Elusive Spirit (66/1), Zeeshan (66/1)

The Joseph O'Brien-trained BOMBSHELL can get off the mark for connections on debut from stall one. The daughter of No Nay Never cost €575,000 earlier this year and can hold off the attentions of Passing Nod and Sampers Seven who can both improve on recent starts at this venue. If getting across from stall 13, Big Gossey could make life difficult for those in behind.
