| 9th | 1 | 2 |
Alphecca (F)
Ended last season on the up, recording back-to-back wins in a Killarney maiden and valuable series final at Naas in October. Possibly needed the run in handicap at Naas a week ago, but will need to resume her progress.

Black Caviar Gold (F)
[P1]
Much improved when winning final 2 starts last year, scoring readily in Weld Park Stakes here to end the campaign. Underperformed in Priory Belle at Leopardstown on return, though reportedly lost a shoe. Worth another chance with cheekpiec…

Caught U Sleeping (F)
Bred to be smart and made a winning debut at Naas last summer, before a good third in listed race at Leopardstown. Possibly unsuited by heavy ground next time and could take a step forward from her recent return in Priory Belle at Leopards…

Drop Dead Gorgeous (F)
FAV
Dubawi half-sister to numerous winners, including 2000 Guineas/Irish 2000 Guineas winner Gleneagles, and settled things in a matter of strides when winning maiden at Naas on debut 6 weeks ago. Most exciting prospect for her leading yard.

Kensington Lane (F)
Off the mark at fifth time of asking in maiden at Gowran in September. However, well held in the Weld Park here (7f) on final outing, before mid-field in Priory Belle at Leopardstown on return. Should at least be suited by this step up to …

Killashee Warrior (F)
Listed fourth at Leopardstown on second outing before winning a Thurles maiden in October. Ran well on reappearance when fourth of 13 in Priory Belle at Leopardstown 22 days ago, despite having to challenge far side. Open to further progre…

Mayflower (F)
Overcame inexperience to make a winning start in a Leopardstown maiden last summer. Took a step forward after 9 months off when sixth of 13 in Priory Belle at the same course in April, making a promising move into contention, and she could…

Pollenca (F)
Never-nearer fourth in 14-runner maiden at Dundalk (1m) on debut in January and built on that effort to open account over 7f here in March, finishing well to get the better of the favourite. Can improve as she gains more experience.

Andrew Slattery | A Slattery | 3 | 58.1 kg |

Sinmara (F)
Made plenty of appeal on pedigree and shaped promisingly on debut when third in maiden at this course in October. Built on that effort after 6 months off when scoring by 6 lengths at Gowran 26 days ago, so she looks well worth her place at…

Sky Watch (F)
Barrier trial winner who shaped encouragingly 5 months on from Rules debut when third in 7f maiden at Galway in October. Upped further in trip, off the mark in good style at Dundalk (1m) in November and she now takes her chance in this hig…

White Sand Beach (F)
[P1]
Very well-bred filly who has placed all 4 starts in maidens so far, again running to a fairly useful level after 5 months off when 1¾ lengths third of 10 to Drop Dead Gorgeous at Naas 6 weeks ago. Cheekpieces now reached for.

Wayne Lordan | A P O'Brien | 3 | 58.1 kg |

Wild Bessie (F)
Down the field in a barrier trial and only modest form on her Rules debut. However, after 6 months off she was much improved when battling well for success in maiden at Cork a month ago. Will need to find more again in this contest.
