Long odds and slowly away on both starts at Dundalk in February and March at 7f-1m; will qualify for handicaps after this.

Cecco
Both starts on soft-heavy ground at Naas (7f) in March and at this venue (1m) last month; showed speed before weakening late on in that last race so the drop back to 6f is a plus but he's unraced on ground this quick; probably best watched.

Frankton
Son of the stable's Irish 2000 Guineas winner Romanised was short enough in the betting for both AW runs at the backend of last season but never landed a blow; has been gelded so could improve but he can only be watched for now.

Starford
Showed definite promise when midfield in a 7f Dundalk maiden in early April; raced too freely when beaten 9l in a 1m maiden here on soft two weeks later; McMonagle up for the first time but not sure this drop back in trip will suit and the ground is an unknown; others appeal more.

Turners Cross
Six-race maiden but has run well in defeat and rated 85; best efforts came in a pair of 5f Navan maidens in September-October; gelded in the off-season and finished last after a slow start in a rated race over 5f here on seasonal reappearance; capable of much better, Foley back on board and 6f should be fine; claims.

Too Darn Hot filly cost 45,000gns as a yearling; third foal; dam 6f AW winner (RPR 94), half-sister to 2m hurdle winner Kristjano out of unraced half-sister to two 1m2f winners; worth a market check on debut.

Sioux Nation filly cost 370,000Euros as a 2yo; ninth foal; half-sister to six winners inc Magical Ride (6f-1m; RPR 98), Severance (1m4f, 96; 2m1f hurdle), Spirit Of The Bay (1m/1m2f inc AW; 92), dam 6f 2yo/1m winner (99); yard 23-72 at this venue and had a well-backed debut winner at Sligo on Sunday; plenty of appeal on paper; go well on debut.

Sapphire Princess
Kingman filly made a pleasing debut here over 7f (good) early last month when beaten by a more experienced rival; entitled to improve for that initial experience and she should be thereabouts again dropped back to 6f.

Suerte
Didn't show a whole lot on debut at Dundalk (7f) in December but was only beaten a head over 6f back there a month later and has been off since; daughter of Dandy Man is bred to act on turf and she has place claims if fit after a 112 day absence.

Wootton Bassett filly is a second foal; dam Listed-placed 7f 2yo winner (RPR 99), sister to 7f 2yo Group 3 winner The Pentagon, half-sister to winners Vadamar (French 1m4f Group 2) and Vedouma (French 1m 2yo Listed), out of French 1m2f Group 1 winner; nice pedigree and well worth a market check on debut.
