Roderic O'Connor gelding. Closely related to several winners including Wild Sauce, successful over 5f/6f. Dam won over 5f as a two-year-old. Market likely to be the best guide on debut.

50/1

Colt by Power out of a Holy Roman Emperor mare. Dam well held on sole career start which came here over 1m. Needs to build on encouraging debut at Dundalk on the AW when last seen in November.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Ben Coen⁽³⁾| T: E Lynam

33/1

Slade Power gelding. Not disgraced but well held in a couple of career starts last term. First time blinkers unlikely to bring about the required amount of improvement needed to play a role here.

7/2

€240,000 breeze up purchase by Starspangledbanner is a half-brother to four winners including Adjusted (Ire/Australia 1m1f-1m4f inc Gr 2). Ran with credit on debut at Naas last July ans can build on that effort here in first-time blinkers.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S M Crosse⁽³⁾| T: J P O'Brien

4/1

Anjika²¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: O J Orr| T: C Cannon

300/1

Anjaal filly cost just 1,500 euros, out of a maiden dam. Dwelt and took too keen a hold to make any impression at odds of 50/1 on debut in a Newcastle novice auction stakes in November. Easy to dismiss.

300/1

Filly by French Navy out of an Invincible Spirit mare. Dam eight-race maiden. Nothing to shout about in a couple of dismal efforts over 6f/7f in August/September last year. Others hold stronger claims.

200/1

Daughter of Society Rock out of a Sakhee's Secret mare. Cost €48,000. Well held in both career starts so far, with a 21L reversal at Naas over 6f in March raising concerns.

40/1

Daughter of Exceed And Excel out of a Barathea mare. Closely related to Musical Art, winner over 6f, third of seven in the Group 3 Princess Margaret Stakes at Ascot. Market likely to be the best guide on third career start.

Experience could be the key to the result of an intriguing encounter where the Aidan O'Brien-trained EDEN QUAY can get off the mark for connections at the second time of asking. The 600,000gns yearling possibly lost the race at the start on debut in a Naas 5f maiden when last seen in September. The Daughter of No Nay Never can get the better of two more experienced rivals in the Joseph O'Brien-trained Lord Mczie, who cost €240,000 at the two-year-old sales and Na Blianta Beo for trainer Jim Bolger who will be looking to improve on slightly disappointing debut at the Curragh last July.
