Selected odds by:
Cost 20,000 gns as a yearling. Trainer's runners often need their debut and the yard are yet to have a winner from five turf starts this season.
Fairly cheap purchase as a yearling within the context of this race (11,000 gns) but related to some Black Type and this distance should suit on debut. Market support would be significant.
Yard been quiet over the last 12 months (1-48) and wide draw won't be easy to overcome. Hard to fancy.
Cost 150,000 gns but trainer has made a slow start to the turf season and may be best watched on debut.
Disappointing in two starts to date and beaten 28L last time. Racecourse experience is one of the few positives.
Nice mix of speed and stamina in his pedigree and holds an English Derby entry so warrants respect. Nice draw to play with but trainer's debutantes usually need their first run.
Well backed and ran a nice debut behind an exciting looking Aidan O'Brien runner, Alphabet, last month. Entitled to come on for that run and should go well again.
Trainer had a big priced winner last week and while this colt doesn't look an obvious type on paper, he can't be completely ruled out from a nice draw.
Well beaten on both starts to date and looked green leaving the gate last time. Unlikely winner with 7lb claimer booked.
Related to some moderate middle-distance performers and has a nice draw to work with. Trainer running at 15% this in the last couple of weeks and made a promising start. Interesting newcomer. Engaged at Tipperary Tuesday
Already exchanged hands three times, most recently for €23,000. Trainer had a good season last year and got an AW winner on the board last week but his charge may struggle here.
Well beaten on debut at Dundalk and looks up against it on the bare level of that form. Trainer's runners can come on plenty for their debut but he's the yard's second string here and others preferred.
Good fourth in what looked like a hot maiden here in the autumn. That's among the best form on offer here but he will have to overcome a wide stall.
Sole filly in the line-up and finished a good 1L third behind a stablemate already rated 91 on debut. Will come on for that and big run expected with Moore booked. Wide draw is the main negative.

Music Box (3/1), Ma Fee Heela (7/2), World Tax War (7/2), Irishcorrespondent (6/1), Free Ranger (8/1), So You Thought (12/1), Uno Momento (12/1), Cannonball (16/1), Wimbourne (20/1), Born To Play (33/1), Regnum (33/1), Discovery Lad (40/1), Great Uncle (50/1), Favorite Story (50/1), Scurlogstown Lad (100/1)
It's hard to oppose the only filly who lines up, MUSIC BOX. She looks to have plenty in her favour including the benefit of a prep run and with Ryan Moore booked, she looks capable of running a big race. World Tax War finished a good third over C&D on his only start and that looks like a strong piece of form. The claims of Ma Fee Heela shouldn't be ignored after being well-backed on debut. He fares better with the draw than his main rivals and should go well again.
