Dense Star (6/4), Mooneista (9/4), Roses Blue (11/4), Tilia Cordata (4/1), Blue Cabochon (9/2), Colfer Kay (16/1), Perfect Sign (18/1), Queens Carriage (18/1), The Blue Garter (20/1), Perfect Match (50/1), Ablah (150/1), Shake The Heart (150/1), What Adaay (200/1)

It's taken a bit of time to get ROSES BLUE back to the track after her Naas debut second towards the beginning of June but that was a very promising opening effort and she's taken to go one better now. Michael O'Callaghan's Tilia Cordata showed clear ability on her debut in listed company and may prove a bigger threat than more established pair Dense Star and Mooniesta.
