Selected odds by:
Didn't show much on his first couple of starts, but improved when switched to the AW last November. Gelded after that and took a backward step on his handicap debut at Cork (7f, good; first-time tongue-tie) latest. More needed.
Made a belated debut at Roscommon (7f, good to firm) last month, where he was 50-1 and well beaten. Similar applied at Gowran Park (7f, soft/heavy) earlier this month. Can only watch at present.
Looked moderate on last season's debut at Roscommon (7½f, soft), but returned to action with a big improvement here over C&D (good/yld; first-time tongue-tie) last month. Needs to step up again on that, but could see him getting into this.
Made the frame in a couple of Navan maidens (5f/5½f, soft) last autumn. Gelded prior to last month's reappearance in a Tipperary handicap. Beaten favourite both there and next time in a Bellewstown maiden and held latest. Contender, but vulnerable.
Showed promise on her first couple of starts last summer, coming closest to winning on the second of them, when 1½L second here (1m, good). Hasn't kicked on from there. Brought down on her reappearance, but could get involved dropped back in trip.
Big prices and well held on both of his starts so far. Can only watch until he has greater experience and enters minor handicap company.
33-1 on debut at Dundalk (6f, AW) in February, where he was a bit too free early but not disgraced in finishing 7L fifth of 12. If he can build on that promise then he could be more seriously involved in this field.
Didn't make the track as a juvenile but has already had a couple of runs in quick succession this month. Didn't show much either at Sligo or Navan (both 5½f), so can really only watch her until there are any signs of ability.
Showed ability on debut over C&D last September, when a close second, so it is a bit of a surprise that she hasn't already broken her duck. Produced another good effort back here last month, and is a big player if able to reproduce that.
Looked likely to win races when going close on her nursery debut at Dundalk (1m, AW) last November. Held next time, and again when an eased-down last at Leopardstown on her return last month. Drops in trip here with a bit to prove now.
€20,000 yearling; third foal; half-sister to 7f-1m winner Rock In Peace; dam a 5f 2yo winning half-sister to two 1m2f Listed winners. Trsiner 8% with 3yos over five seasons, and this filly is probably worth a precautionary market check.
€4,000 yearling; first foal; dam an unraced half-sister to 6f winner Huntsmans Close, with pedigree suggesting trips of around 7f-1m2f will suit eventually. Probably one to watch first time.
33-1 on debut but belied those odds with a promising effort at Navan (5f, good to firm) last month. Couldn't then build on that when upped to this trip over C&D last time, but was found to be in season. Contender if she can kick on again this time.
Showed ability on her debut last season, when with Sheila Lavery. Best of her two runs for this trainer was also her first, when a 1L third at the Curragh (6f, good) last month, on handicap debut. Soft ground a possible excuse last time. Contender.
Improved on her only completed juvenile start when reappearing here (7f, good/yld) last month, showing minor promise. Has something to build on there, but may have to wait for other days.
Showed promise on debut at Gowran Park (1m1½f, good; first-time tongue-tie) last month, but was was held when upped to 1m4f at Limerick last time. Now takes a big drop in trip if he gets in here. Can only watch.
150-1 and never a factor on her debut in a fillies' maiden at Gowran Park (7f, soft/heavy) earlier in the month. Blinkers now added, but can only watch until we see signs of ability.
Daughter of Excelebration who went off at 22-1 on debut at Navan (5½f, yld/soft) in a fillies' maiden recently and came home last of 14. Others readily preferred if she gets a run here.

This doesn't look the deepest of maidens and could be a good opportunity for TAGGALO to break her duck. Johnny Murtagh's filly may not have been suited by cut in the ground last time and it looks worth chancing that she can bounce back on better ground, given the form of her previous effort. Old Bonita, Allez Allez Allez, Multiply By Eight and King Of Stars are others of interest.
