Saint Brandon
Both wins have been at this trip on good ground; Down Royal maiden last term and on turf return 10 days ago when posting career-best in making all in Cork handicap; tough ask under double penalty here but progressing well.

Mathan
Twice runner-up over 6f including Curragh maiden last month before off the mark upped to 7f at same venue 13 days later, relishing trip on soft ground; type to keep progressing and major contender if handling quicker ground.

Monotone
5f maiden winner at Cork early last season on heavy; highly tried afterwards without success and last month's comeback run in Naas handicap in similar ground was just okay; blinkers now tried and needs to improve plenty.

Spycraft
Plenty green but made winning debut in Dundalk maiden in December over this trip, never landing a blow when given stiff task on turf debut in Group 3 at Leopardstown last month; tongue-tie now tried and back to a more realistic level with possibly more to come.

Ethical Code
Justify half-sister to nine winners including Requinto, a 5f Group 2 winner at two; dam won the Queen Mary and the Phoenix Stakes; easy to back when making winning debut in Dundalk fillies maiden over this trip in October, quite green when holding on in blanket finish; hood now fitted for turf debut and likely more to come; ground should suit too.

Nancy J
Won C&D maiden last summer on quick ground and better form when beaten little over 2l in Leopardstown Listed following month, finishing strongly; didn't get much luck in running when beaten favourite in valuable Curragh sales race fortnight later; well entered-up filly remains open to improvement.

Queens Fury
Had quite a busy 2yo campaign, winning final start in Dundalk maiden over this trip in November; faded tamely in conditions event there in February; vulnerable to several potential improvers here.

Shiota
Won over 6f at Naas last season and bettered that on final start when third in Curragh nursery at this trip, staying on well; quite likely more improvement to come this year but this looks a tough enough task.
