Who knows what lurks amongst the newcomers and Win Me Over is a sister to Palace Pier, while Bint Queen Kindly is entered in the Irish 1,000 Guineas. However, some of those with experience have already performed to a good level, notably COPACABANA SANDS, Kitty Rickets and Murkala. Wannabe Roya is one with a recent run under her belt. The market should be helpful as regards assessing all their chances.[Alistair Jones]

Fourth foal; half-sister to winners Walking Painting (French 1m; RPR 109), Westridge (1m; 91) and Aveta (1m; 84); dam 7f 2yo winner (85); stable won this with a newcomer 12 months ago (16-1).
Night Of Thunder filly; closely related to Group-placed 6f 2yo winner Queen Me (RPR 104); dam 5f/6f winner (including 2yo Group 2; 112); likeable pedigree and she's in the Irish 1,000 Guineas.
Beaten five times but was a closing third of 16 in a valuable auction race at Naas (7f) after finding trouble in running and than ran in a Group 3; should go well back in a maiden for her new trainer provided this isn't needed.
Positives to take from all her runs last season and she ran on well to be fourth of 16 in a C&D maiden the last time (October) won by Giselle who then finished third in a Group 3; has to enter the reckoning, for all that soft ground will be a first for her.
5,000euros yearling; first foal; dam well beaten 1m only start, half-sister to winners Valentana (7f/1m) and Black Dave (5f-1m2f); not overly appealing on pedigree and hood is fitted for debut.
Has only raced on good or quicker; her last two starts were a bit disappointing given that she had run so well behind one of last season's top 2yos in Lake Victoria in a 7f maiden here first time out; massive shout if she's back to that level of form.
First foal; dam unraced half-sister to Listed-placed 6f 2yo winner Eastern Voice, out of maiden half-sister to useful 1m4f Flat/2m hurdle winner Via Galilei; with a leading trainer so best to let the market guide.
20,000euros yearling; seventh foal; closely related to 7f AW/8.4f turf Listed winner Ship Of Dreams (RPR 104), half-sister to two further winners including Woodford General (6f; 89); dam unraced; likely best watched.
Plenty of encouraging signs on two visits to Dundalk, in the latest a month ago finishing best of the rest behind a useful rival; stable has won two of the last three renewals of this and she has fitness on her side.
A sister to top-class miler Palace Pier and closely related to 1m2f winner Tatweej (73); dam unraced half-sister to a 1m2f Group 2 winner; has no fancy entries but has some pedigree and the betting should be revealing.
20,000euros yearling; eleventh foal; closely related to French 6f 2yo winner Ernesto De La Cruz (RPR 91); dam unraced half-sister to a 1m2f Group 3 winner; as with most of the newcomers, it makes sense to check the market.
