7/2
Foaled February 23. €150,000 yearling, Lucky Vega gelding. Dam 1m winner who stayed 1¼m out of useful 1m-11f winner Valiant Girl, herself sister to Jockey Club/Hardwicke Stakes winner Bronze Cannon. Plenty to like on paper and market check a must.

Once-raced colt. 12/1, sixth of 14 in maiden at Gowran (7f, good to firm) on debut 40 days ago, not knocked about. Likely to improve.

7/1
Once-raced colt. Tenth of 19 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good, 7/1) on debut 37 days ago, left poorly placed. Significantly up in trip and tongue strap on 1st time. Probably more one for handicaps further down the line.

10/3
Thrice-raced colt. 7/2 and blinkered for 1st time, thirteenth of 15 in maiden at Galway (7f, good to soft) 52 days ago. Yet to build on debut promise and looks vulnerable.

25/1
Foaled May 4. Holy Roman Emperor colt. Brother to 3 winners, including smart 7f-11f winner Numerian and useful 2-y-o 7f winner Montesilvano, and closely related to 7f-1¾m winner Song of Love. Likely type on paper and the market should provide clues.

Foaled April 23. €28,000 yearling, Sottsass filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 1m winner Ocean Conquest and 1½m winner Persistence. Entitled to come on for the run.

6/1
Thrice-raced filly. Fifth of 15 in maiden (3/1) at Navan (5.8f, good) 16 days ago. Significantly up in trip and should take a hand in the finish, provided her stamina passes the test.

Horse silk
13/2
Twice-raced filly. Sixth of 7 in maiden at Galway (7f, good to soft, 6/4) 13 days ago. Reportedly sustained a wound to a hind leg, so it's probably best to judge her on her encouraging debut third at Leopardstown.

Forecasts

World Tour (10/3), Now Maybe (7/2), Castelluccia (6/1), Sutton Hoo (6/1), Cherry Hill Girl (13/2), Substance (7/1), Marjorie Daw (12/1), Qalaa (18/1), Venturing (25/1)

Newcomer NOW MAYBE is sufficiently appealing on paper to earn the vote in this maiden. Indeed, this €150,000 certainly wouldn't need to be out of the ordinary to make a winning start to his career and confidence behind him in the betting would look significant. The fillies Castelluccia and Cherry Hill Girl may emerge as the main dangers, provided the former sees out this trip and the latter is able to get back on track. Venturing is another noteworthy newcomer.
