Horse silk
Cheap purchase who was equipped with a hood for debut and lost all chance at the start last of 11 in maiden (80/1) at this course (8f) on debut 49 days ago. This should reveal more.

Ten Sovereigns gelding. Very green when eleventh of 12 in maiden (16/1) at Naas (5.9f, good to soft) on debut 5 months ago. This should reveal more.

€44,000 2-y-o, Magna Grecia gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including 6f winner Dutch Mist and 1m winner Touch The Sound. Dam 6f winner. Wears tongue strap.

Timeform
90,000 gns yearling, Night of Thunder gelding. Half-brother to 2-y-o debut 7f winner Sluice. Dam, 10.3f winner. Appeals as a likely type on paper starting out for a powerful yard and he could be worth chancing before the benefit of market clues.

Twice-raced colt. Improved on debut form when second of 13 in claimer (5/2) at this C&D 56 days ago, hanging right approaching final 1f but keeping on. Minor role may be his best hope again back in maiden company.

Horse silk
Bred to be useful but easy to back and shaped as if needing the experience when seventh of 13 in a C&D maiden on debut in October. Likely she's derived plenty from that and she's entitled to do better.

Horse silk
Twice-raced gelding. Seventh of 10 in maiden (9/2) at this course (8f) 14 days ago, having to pick way through. Very much appeals as the type to do better again, particularly in handicaps. Reserve 1.

Forecasts

Thunder Song (11/4), Lyra Constellation (7/2), After Love (6/1), Ze Do Asfalto (7/1), Letters Of Love (7/1), Sottsands (10/1), Dowth (12/1), Oiche Rua (12/1), All Told (16/1), Innkeeper (20/1), Rushes To Riches (20/1), Tall River (20/1), Men Of Honour (25/1), Shuyak (33/1), Jasmine Affanalis (33/1), Heaven's On Fire (66/1), Beaune (100/1)

Verdict

Far from a strong maiden and with that in mind the vote goes to newcomer THUNDER SONG, who appeals on paper being a half-brother to one who made a successful debut over this trip. After Love appeals as a likely improver representing Dermot Weld and she's feared along with Lyra Constellation. Letters of Love is another debutante to note.
