Selected odds by:
Lightly-raced winner. Succesful at Leopardstown in July. 28/1, 4½ lengths eighth of 9 to Chantez in listed race at Leopardstown (7f, good) 38 days ago. Yard also saddles Celtic Motif.
|
Thrice-raced maiden. 16/1, third of 14 in minor event at this course (7f, good to soft) 24 days ago, never nearer. Looks sure to win races and she should make her presence felt.
|
Twice-raced winner. 5/2, won 14-runner maiden at Naas (7f, good to firm) 33 days ago, impressively. Should have more to offer and while this represents a significant rise in class, she's clearly very promising.
|
Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, good length third of 16 to Fiona Maccoul in minor event at Naas (7f, good to soft) 9 days ago, never nearer. Easy to look elsewhere.
|
Lightly-raced maiden. Good length fourth of 16 to Fiona Maccoul in minor event (16/1) at Naas (7f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Plenty to find on form.
|
Thrice-raced winner. Won 16-runner minor event at Naas (7f, good to soft, 11/1) 9 days ago, suited by increase in trip. This is much tougher.
|
Promising type. 1/2, won 16-runner maiden at this course (7f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Ryan Moore's pick of the Aidan O'Brien-trained quartet and she's high on the shortlist.
|
Promising type. Won 11-runner maiden (3/1) at Gowran (8f, good) 31 days ago. Passed over by Ryan Moore but she's a player nonetheless.
|
Thrice-raced winner. Won 16-runner maiden (7/1) at Cork (8f, good to firm) 41 days ago, driven out. This is a much tougher assignment.
|
Lightly-raced winner. 5/6, career best when winning 8-runner maiden at Thurles (8.2f, good) 12 days ago, keeping on well. Doesn't appear to be at the top of the Ballydoyle pecking order judged on rider arrangements.
|
Promising type. Won 9-runner maiden at Doncaster (7f, good, 2/1) 39 days ago, kept up to work. Ryan Moore partners Giselle instead but this filly merits respect all the same.

Giselle (10/11), Whirl (6/1), Celtic Motif (7/1), Cercene (7/1), Island Hopping (8/1), Tamam Desert (14/1), And So To Bed (16/1), Mint Candy (18/1), Fiona Maccoul (40/1), Copacabana Sands (80/1), Jaliyah (100/1), Famed Again (150/1)
This step up to a mile should suit CERCENE, who landed a Naas maiden in good style last month and, with further improvement likely, she can take this step up in class in her stride. Ballydoyle first-string Giselle is feared most but only marginally as Celtic Motif, who has shown plenty in a trio of 7f maidens, is also high on the shortlist. Giselle's stablemates Island Hopping and Whirl are also of interest.
