10/1

Gelding by Heeraat out of an Exceed And Excel mare. Plenty to like about a couple of initial career starts to date including when finishing third of 10 at Cork last month. Has the form to make a bold bid.

Anjaal filly. Half-sister to two-year-old 7f winner Q Ten Girl and two-year-old 6f-1m winner Veejay. Will need to improve on debut run at Navan when last seen in April, weakening in the final furlong to finish seventh of 12.

Forecasts

Piece of Paradise (2/1), Mogwli (5/1), Kurpany (6/1), Dragon Ryker (7/1), Franklin Street (7/1), Prima Vega (8/1), Principalship (10/1), Settle Me Down (16/1), Hot Dakota (20/1), Via Veneto (33/1), Myrcella (50/1), Dragon Of Malta (66/1), Swisstopher (66/1)

The Augustine Leahy-trained PRINCIPALSHIP appears to have the best form of those with experience and can get off the mark for connections at the fourth time of asking. Third of 10 beaten ¾L last month, the Heeraat gelding can get the better of Mogwli and newcomer, Franklin Street in the opener.
