Jockey: J M Sheridan Trainer: Joseph Patrick O'Brien Age/Wt: 2/9-2 F: 2

11/8

Comment: E160,000 Tattersalls Ireland Breeze Up purchase; made an encouraging debut when second to the twice-raced Anushka over C&D three weeks ago; will probably need to improve to cope with a couple of the colts here.

7/4

Comment: E260,000 yearling; fifth foal, half-brother to three winners; made a pleasing debut as the stable outsider when fourth of 17 over 6f at Naas; looked in need of further when fifth (fourth in group) in a 28-runner Curragh maiden won by subsequent Ascot big-race winner Mission Central; second, third and fourth have all won.

Comment: Wootton Bassett colt came up against smart Ballydoyle colts on all three starts at the Curragh; around 3l behind subsequent Group-placed Listed winner Daytona when third in debut; followed that with a fifth placing in which Aidan O'Brien had the first three; fourth over 6f on heavy ground last month; good prospects if taking to this surface.

Comment: Third career success when scoring over C&D in April, allowed to go clear from early on; following month ran poorly on turf and absent since; hard to be confident in after summer break but dangerous if getting a soft lead.

5/6

Comment: Some decent placed form in maidens, including when third in a 1m contest here last November; raced awkwardly when 4 1/2l second behind the odds-on Ledecky at Tramore in August; did not quite run up her rating (74) when second over the extended 1m2f here last Friday; will not need to improve much to score now.

10/3

Comment: Has been a little higher in the ratings than her current 68 but arguably ran her best race so far when fourth behind smart bumper horse Switch From Diesel in a 23-runner 1m4f maiden at the Curragh early this month; capable of making presence felt.

Comment: Satisfactory debut at Roscommon in August, not so good at Naas last month; always prominent when second to a stablemate of Matrice over 7f here a fortnight ago; half-sister to 1m Group 2 winner Duhail and is not sure to stay as far as this,
