Canford Light

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: N G McCullagh| T: T Mullins

66/1

Canford Cliffs colt who was foaled on March 19. His dam was a winner over 5f and is a half-sister to Minor Vamp who prevailed over 7f as a two-year-old. Likely to be much better once he has experience on his side.

Chiricahua²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Colin Keane| T: G M Lyons

6/4

Finished second of 17 runners at Navan (1m) on his debut last month after starting the contest as the 13/8 joint-favourite. Came home strongly to seal the runner up spot on the line. One to consider on his latest attempt.

Form: 2

(9)

Depardieu⁴⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: G M Ryan⁽⁵⁾| T: M C Grassick

100/1

Has struggled in his two starts so far. He had just one horse behind him last time in a 26 runner field at the Curragh (6½f) after going off at 100/1. Needs to take a huge stride forward in order to be in contention.

Form: 00

(10)

Emiyn

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: O J Orr| T: D K Weld

16/1

Invincible Spirit colt who was foaled on May 11. His dam scored at trips between 1m1f-1m4f, including in the Give Thanks Stakes. Has an entry in the Irish 2000 Guineas. A newcomer which stands out on paper. One for the shortlist.

Form:

(17)

Joven⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: J M Sheridan⁽⁷⁾| T: T Mullins

8/1

Has hit the frame in big fields on both of his two appearances to date. He was second of 16 on his last start at Leopardstown (7f). Is up in trip now which may help his chances. Worth considering as there could still be more to come.

Form: 32

(2)

Mccabe^b1⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: K J Manning| T: J S Bolger

25/1

Showed a lot of encouragement on his debut when he was second of eight at Gowran Park (1m). Failed to build upon on that on his latest start as he came home last of 16 runners at Leopardstown (7f). Needs to bounce back.

Form: 20

(16)

Nobel Prize¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: D O'Brien| T: A P O'Brien

6/4

Made a huge improvement on his second start at Leopardstown (1m) to finish second of 13 runners, beaten by 1¾L. He kept on strongly in the closing stages last time. Leading contender as he remains open to improvement.

Form: 92

(3)

Order Of Australia

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: P B Beggy| T: A P O'Brien

16/1

Australia colt who was foaled on February 18. He is closely related to Iridessa who scored over 1m2f, while he is a half-brother to Dream and Hope who prevailed over 7f. Likely type on debut so is one to think about.

Form:

(5)

Sir I'll Chance It^b⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: S Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington

66/1

Has been a long way down the field on his two starts. His latest appearance came at Dundalk (1m) on the AW where he was 10th of 14 after going off at 50/1. Needs to improve to be in the mix at the finish here.

Form: 00

(7)

Solar System⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Ronan Whelan| T: J S Bolger

33/1

Has failed to threaten in the closing stages in either of his two outings. He came home 14th of 16 on his latest effort at Leopardstown (7f). Stepping up in trip now. Has to be produce much more.

Form: 00

(12)

Sydney Blues^t1⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: C P Hoban| T: P J Flynn

100/1

He was pulled-up on his opening appearance at Dundalk (1m) on the AW last month after hanging to the right 3f into the contest. Will wear a tongue-tie for the first time here. Best to watch on his return to action.

Form: P

(8)

Verdon Gorge

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Declan McDonogh| T: J P O'Brien

20/1

Camelot colt who was foaled on February 27 and cost 240,000 gns as a yearling. Market likely to speak volumes about his chances of success on his opening start here.

Form:

(13)

Vultan

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Chris Hayes| T: J P O'Brien

25/1

Fastnet Rock colt who was foaled on March 1. His dam was unraced but a half-sister to Saratov who prevailed over 1m2½f. He is closely related to useful 6f winner Ice Bullet. Look out for any strong market confidence on his debut.

Form:

(1)

Willywampus²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: G P Halpin| T: D Commins

20/1

Finished fifth of 11 on his opening start at Limerick (7f) after going off at 66/1. He was slowly into stride but did make good progress after that. That experience will help him but others make more of an appeal here.

Form: 5

(4)

Camakey²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Robbie Colgan| T: Mrs D Foster

100/1

Was a long way off the winner when she was 17th of 21 on her opening appearance at Navan over 5½f. Stepping up in trip now so she does need to prove her stamina at this new distance. Best to watch.

Form: 0

(14)

Moll

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Ben Coen⁽⁵⁾| T: M A Cahill

66/1

Camelot filly who was foaled on May 2 and cost €3,000 as a yearling. Her dam was unraced but closely related to Rivet who won over 7f and 1m as a two-year-old. Other newcomers are preferred on their first run here.

Form:

Tamayuz's Gold

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Rory Cleary| T: N Slevin

100/1

Tamayuz filly who was foaled on May 4 and and cost €16,000 as a yearling. Her dam won over 6f as a two-year-old. She is a half-sister to Nibiru who was a 6f winner in her two-year-old campaign. Likely to improve with experience.

Forecasts

Nobel Prize (6/4), Chiricahua (6/4), Joven (8/1), Emiyn (16/1), Order Of Australia (16/1), Willywampus (20/1), Verdon Gorge (20/1), Vultan (25/1), Mccabe (25/1), Solar System (33/1), Canford Light (66/1), Moll (66/1), Sir I'll Chance It (66/1), Depardieu (100/1), Sydney Blues (100/1), Tamayuz's Gold (100/1), Camakey (100/1)

NOBEL PRIZE sets the standard here with his second place finish over this distance at Leopardstown last time out. He can build upon that to break his maiden at the third attempt. Chiricahua made an encouraging debut at Navan last month where he did all his best work in the closing stages to get up for second. He should be close by once again, while Emiyn has an entry in the Irish 2000 Guineas and is likely to run well on his debut which could see him hit the frame.
