Selected odds by:

(15)

Templemary Boy

Age: 4| Weight: 10-5| J: R P Downey⁽³⁾| T: P W Flynn

50/1

Vocalised gelding whose dam was a maiden but was a half-sister to a Listed placed horse. The fact he's been gelded and not seen until this age can be taken as a negative and he's likely to struggle for a yard without a winner in recent time.

Form: 06

Auckland^t1²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J A Heffernan| T: A P O'Brien

7/2

Distant third on debut but respectable effort nonetheless. Disappointing on comeback run at Leopardstown last time and drop back in trip isn't sure to suit but he still holds an Irish 2,000 Guineas entry along with Dante and Derby entries and he should come on for his recent run.

Form: 3-05

(4)

Billyfairplay⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: C P Hoban| T: W J Martin

66/1

Dark Angel gelding whose dam placed in Listed company. Struggled on debut at Limerick when too green in the early stages and yard have been quiet recently so probably best watched once again.

Form: 00

(1)

Cut The Deck

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: M K O'Sullivan⁽¹⁰⁾| T: J J Murphy

50/1

Art Connoisseur gelding who may find this a little sharp on debut but dam had some stamina on her side of the pedigree. Trainer has had a quiet start to the year and probably best watched with a 10lb claimer in the saddle.

Form: 0

(6)

Erquy¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: C R King| T: A Mullins

50/1

Sinndar gelding who only showed a glimpse of ability at Naas on debut and proved very disappointing at Cork when last of 18. Has to improve to be a factor here and likely to want further than this test.

Form: 000

(13)

Jamington

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D W O'Connor⁽⁵⁾| T: D Marnane

50/1

Choiser gelding who cost £32,000 as a yearling. May find this too tougher test of stamina on debut and wide draw isn't ideal.

Form: 0

(8)

Mirror Man

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S Foley| T: M Halford

14/1

Bernardini colt with a nice American pedigree but will proably want further than this and unlikely to want the rain that's forecast. Nice type but best watched on debut.

Form: 7

(10)

Nimitz¹⁷²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Declan McDonogh| T: C O'Brien

33/1

Well beaten at the Curragh on debut but imroved to finish fifth of 14 at Dundalk in November. Not been seen since and may need this run while yard have been a little quiet so far this season.

Form: 05-

(12)

Reimagine

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D A McCormack⁽⁵⁾| T: D K Weld

33/1

Teofilo gelding, cost 60,000 gns as a yearling. Related to plenty of winners including the speedy Group 2 winning Conquest. Trainer can ready one for a debut so any market support should be noted but the fact he's already gelded perhaps not the best sign and he has a wide draw to overcome.

Form: 06

(14)

Time Dee^t1¹⁸⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: C O'Donoghue| T: P D Deegan

10/1

Recovered well on debut after a slow start to finish fourth at Dundalk. Will have learned plenty from that experience and tongue-tie applied for the first time could bring out improvement. Respected despite a wide draw with an in-form jockey booked.

Form: 4-4

(7)

Treaty Of Vienna^t1²¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: K J Manning| T: J S Bolger

6/1

Went well on debut at the Curragh last year and yard have turned the corner in the past couple of weeks. First-time tongue-tie could also help bring about improvement and step up in trip likely to suit; leading claims.

Form: 4-21

(16)

Yarraman²²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: M C Hussey| T: P J Flynn

100/1

Well beaten on both starts last year and has been dealt a tough draw to deal with; likely to do better when tackling handicaps

Form: 00-

(3)

Bumbasina²⁵²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: W J Lee| T: W McCreery

5/1

Canford Cliffs filly who showed some promise on debut at the Curragh. Will enjoy stronger tests of stamina than this down the line but not dismissed with improvement likely.

Form: 7-1

(5)

Conversely

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Wayne Lordan| T: H De Bromhead

25/1

Shamardal filly bought for just €6,000 earlier this year. That may tell it's own story and yard have been out of form in both codes of late.

Form: 6

(9)

Frima

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: P J Smullen| T: D K Weld

15/8

Frankel filly, half-sister to Group 3 winner Jetaway, dam was unraced but sister to a Listed winner. Trip should suit fine on debut and is the pick of the stable jockey so plenty to like from a workable draw.

Form:

(2)

Lamh Ar Lamh¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Rory Cleary| T: J S Bolger

33/1

Teofilo filly that may want a little further than this and she showed very little on debut. Would need to improve markedly.

Form: 0

Forecasts

Frima (15/8), Auckland (7/2), Bumbasina (5/1), Treaty Of Vienna (6/1), Time Dee (10/1), Mirror Man (14/1), Conversely (25/1), Lamh Ar Lamh (33/1), Nimitz (33/1), Reimagine (33/1), Jamington (50/1), Erquy (50/1), Templemary Boy (50/1), Cut The Deck (50/1), Billyfairplay (66/1), Yarraman (100/1)

FRIMA is a well-bred sort and she could be up to winning on debut. Jim Bolger's yard have turned the corner in recent weeks and Treaty of Vienna looks the most likely winner of his runners after a promising debut. Time Dee was another who showed ability on his sole outing to date and should go well.
