10/1

Showed something like debut form in a refitted hood when third of 14 in maiden at Down Royal (7f, good) 35 days ago. That was a fair effort and she's an each-way player for all a switch to nurseries will likely suit her better.

25/1

Foaled April 6. €36,000 yearling, Kodi Bear filly. 18/1 showed a bit when keeping on for fifth in 8-runner Down Royal (7f) 11 days ago. Can build on that but possible she'll be brought along with handicaps in mind.

14/1

5/4

Foaled April 18. 55,000 gns yearling, €170,000 2-y-o, Calyx filly. Half-sister to winner up to 7f Mission Command and useful 2-y-o 7f/1m winner Capall Rasa. Yard's record this season with 2-y-o debutants stands at 9-60 at the time of writing and she's well worthy of note.

Alpha Betty¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Rory Cleary| T: C W J Farrell

20/1

Nando Parrado filly who was sent off at long odds on debut but showed some ability when fourth of 8 in a Down Royal maiden (7f) on debut 11 days ago, keeping on close home. Appeals as the type to build on that.

Form: 4

Lady's Court^h1³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Leigh Roche| T: P W Flynn

12/1

Inns of Court filly. Showed a bit when fifth of 14 in a 6f maiden here on debut in August and showed good speed when finishing fourth in a Navan maiden (6f) 5 weeks ago. Hood goes on first time but step up to 7f doesn't look an obvious move.

Form: 54

Sonic Sabiha¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Luke McAteer| T: D Marnane

3/1

Phoenix Of Spain filly who has stepped forward with each start to date, not seen to best effect and catching the eye of the stewards when fifth of 11 in a Listowel maiden (1m) 18 days ago. Very much the type to go on improving and no surprise to see her make more of an impact.

Form: 785

Dragon Scales⁵⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Nathan Crosse| T: Daniel McLoughlin

10/1

Footstepsinthesand filly who was unfancied in the betting but hinted at ability when sixth of 16 in maiden at Gowran (7f) in August. This promises to reveal more. RESERVE.

STAR GLORY proved her Galway running all wrong back on a more conventional course and looked a shade unlucky not to force a photo when going down narrowly at Naas 7 weeks ago. She sets a good standard here and shades preference over Joseph O'Brien's appealing newcomer Ladies Gossip. Listowel eye-catcher Sonic Sabiha is another warranting a close look with further progress anticipated.
