Selected odds by:
Gelding by High Chaparral out of a Mr Greely mare. Cost 5,500gns at last years Newmarket sales in May. Well behind in a couple of bumpers and pulled up on hurdling debut since February does not trigger any enthusiasm for Flat debut.
One of the most experienced in the field without a win in six starts for trainer Jessica Harrington. Can perform better than her seasonal and stable debut effort at Leopardstown last month.
By Dansili out of a Quiet American mare. Gelded since a couple of three-year-old efforts last season including a promising 2¼L defeat at Navan when last seen in October. Can be a major player if returning to previous form.
Gelding by Famous Name out of an Indian Ridge mare. Half-brother to 6f winner Born Innocent. Failed to make the required level in a couple of starts for trainer Dermot Weld. Best watched on stable debut.
Fledgling hurdling career has floundered with a number of dismal efforts since November. Reverts to the Flat where the Approve gelding was well held in two starts for trainer Paddy Prendergast. Well below par form looks set to continue.
Colt by Teofilo. Full-brother to useful 1¼m-1m5f winner Ceol Na Nog and closely related to useful 1½m winner Feile Na Mban. Promising fourth of 14 beaten 9L on Tipperary debut last month. One to consider with expected improvement.
Experienced hurdler, winner of five of his 17 starts over timber. Out ran his odds of 50/1 on Flat debut in a Tipperary maiden over 1m4½f last month. Market likely to be the best guide to chances on second turf start.
Gelding by Compton Place out of a Rock Of Gibraltar mare. Nothing of note as yet following a couple of disappointing efforts at Clonmel and Tipperary last month. Doesn't appear as good as stablemate The Jam Man.
Filly by Rip Van Winkle out of a Rainbow Quest mare. Cost 10,000gns and is a half-sister to multiple winner Storming Tom. Disappointing start to career in a couple of starts and behind a number of these at Tipperary last month.
Mustameet mare has made a solid start on the Flat running well in a number of starts since finishing third of 17 at Gowran Park last month. Likely to improve once again and deserves a change of luck.
Solid and consistent 10-race maiden who has hit the frame in three of her four starts since March including finishing third of 10 on handicap debut over a similar trip earlier this month. Should be a leading contender in this company.
Winner on his fourth bumper start at Down Royal earlier this month. Market likely to reveal expectations making Flat debut for Champion hurdle winning trainer.

Forecasts
Latoyah Of North (2/1), Minnie Haha (9/4), Make The Switch (7/2), Smart Living (8/1), Tritonix (10/1), The Jam Man (12/1), Kashid (25/1), Galeola (33/1), Navajo Ridge (33/1), The Tubinator (33/1), Lizbuncon (50/1), Arizona Boy (66/1), Paul Patterson (66/1)
The Jim Bolger-trained, Godolphin-owned SMART LIVING may not have to improve too much on his debut run at Tipperary last month to land the spoils in the closer. The Teofilo colt may have too much dropping in trip and can see off the attentions of Make The Switch on seasonal debut and the solid and consistent Minnie Haha. The brave mare, Latoyah Of North is worthy of consideration and not easily dismissed.
