Spring Elegance (10/3), Brosna Shine (7/2), Belladaball (9/2), Babyburn (9/2), Ash Hobbs (6/1), Easily Distracted (13/2), Claudel (18/1), Araminta (22/1), Midnight Musical (25/1), Beechingstoke (28/1), Miss Kingston (50/1), Let's Go Forez (66/1), Isitraininginparis (66/1), Myluckymaker (80/1), Better Be Elusive (125/1), Hunskelper (150/1), Certosa (200/1)

There was clear daylight between ASH HOBBS and her rivals when she made a winning debut in a maiden point during the spring and she is taken to make a successful start under Rules for her top connections. Babyburn makes plenty of appeal on the basis of her pedigree and the yard that she represents, and it would be an ominous sign for the others if she's strong in the betting. Having shaped well on her introduction at Punchestown Brosna Shine is also shortlisted.
