Loughrea (G)
FAV
Stepped up from promising debut when ¾-length second of 15 in 1m maiden at Gowran last month. Sets the standard on that form and looks sure to go close with further progress on the cards.

Gliondar (G)
FAV
€150,000 yearling, Romanised gelding. Half-brother to smart 1m winner Metropolitan and 7.5f/1m winner Mister Charlie, both in France. Dam unraced. Third of 9 in barrier trial at Naas in May. Makes plenty of appeal for top yard enjoying a f…

King Of Eze (G)
3,000 gns foal, Bated Breath gelding. Dam, winner up to 1¼m (2-y-o 9.5f winner) who stayed 12.5f, half-sister to smart winner up to 8.3f (stayed 10.3f) Staying On. Is likely to need a bit of time and distance.

Lord Darragh (G)

Noble Venture (G)
Bred more for speed than stamina and showed that when seventh of 13 in a maiden at Fairyhouse on debut. Drop in trip should suit, though likelihood is he'll make little appeal this side of handicaps.

Rock Of Claremont (G)
30,000 gns yearling, Profitable gelding. Closely related to smart 2-y-o 7f winner Royal Meeting and half-brother to several winners, including very smart winner up to 1m Heavy Metal.

Valentino Eclipse (C)
Showed promise when neck second of 9 to Halon Bay in maiden at Leopardstown on debut in May, nearest at the finish. Hood worn on that occasion has been removed but looks open to improvement stepped up to 1m.
