The main protagonists in this maiden are BELLA SCINTILLA and Still Ciel. The former showed plenty of ability in this sphere and over fences in France for previous connections and she is taken to make a winning start for the bang in-form Joseph O'Brien yard. Still Ciel chased home a decent mare at Cork last time and there's almost certainly better to come from her, so she should pick up a race sooner rather than later. Glorious Singer is the pick of the remainder.
