Florence Camille (10/3), Salsa (9/2), Snow (5/1), St Clerans (6/1), Rosa Albertine (7/1), Sagrada Familia (15/2), Thunder Kiss (8/1), Grenadine (12/1), Tashi (12/1), Oh So True (16/1), Evening Primrose (16/1), Poster Child (20/1), Kalayena (25/1), Afterglow (33/1), Slaney East (40/1), Karrakatta (66/1)

Some well-bred sorts in here and the one who makes most appeal is EVENING PRIMROSE. She may not be the first-string on jockey bookings but she's a well bred sort who should relish a step up in trip here. Snow is another interesting O'Brien runner and it will be interesting to see what the market makes of Oh So True ahead of her debut having cost €750,000 as a yearling.
