IPANEMA BEACH sets a clear standard on his third at the Curragh in June and he's fancied to get back on the up in first-time blinkers. Celestial Siren wasn't beaten far in a Leopardstown maiden that's working out well and is the main danger if seeing out the longer trip. Of the rest, Strikewhileitshot had no chance behind an exciting prospect last time and can be competitive in this sort of company, while My Corbett Court has stamina to prove but has shown signs of promise for his shrewd yard.
