9th	4	13	Spectrolyte (F) Needed the experience in pair of 7f maidens to date (well backed on debut). Likely one for handicaps given yard saddle better-fancied King Christoph.	98	Ben Coen A Slattery	2	59kg	81 80/1

8th	10	6	Ah Sure Look (G) Green/never involved under a hands-and-heels ride on debut (80/1) at the Curragh (7f, heavy) 11 days ago. Likely to flourish at a later stage.	08	Declan McDonogh M Hassett	2	57.6kg	126 125/1

1st	12	5	King Christoph (G) FAV Made an encouraging start to his career when 1¼-length second in a well-run Listowel maiden (1m), racing wide before keeping on in the manner of one who'll stay further. Sets a fairly useful standard…	21	Andrew Slattery A Slattery	2	57.6kg	2.38 11/8
