Comment: Wootton Bassett colt cost 200,000gns as a yearling; half-brother to winners Bowmark (Listed-placed 1m; RPR 106), Bouquet (1m 2yo; 94), Hidden Story (1m2f AW; 93) and Fighter Command (1m2f; 90); dam 1m2f Listed winner (100), sister to Derby winner Serpentine; top yard; newcomer has to be respected although no fancy entries.

Comment: Homebred Mehmas colt is second foal of a 7f winner (RPR 81), a sister to useful 7f-2m winner Duty Of Care, and half-sister to Breeders' Cup Mile winner Expert Eye; family of 1,000 Guineas winner Special Duty; top connections, any market strength on debut has to be noted.

Comment: Siyouni half-brother to Australian 1m winner Maximum Dividend; dam Group 3 winner, sister to a middle-distance winner First Officer; eyecatching debut in Navan maiden last month, coming from last (green) to finish fourth behind a clear winner; 2l ahead of Estoublon then and interesting to see which of the pair makes the most improvement upped in trip here.

Comment: Wootton Bassett colt a 160,000Euros yearling; first foal; dam 1m4f winner, sister to middle-distance Group 2 winner Leo De Fury, half-sister to 1m2f-1m4f Group 1 winner Luxembourg; slow to break, ran green and not clear run when midfield in good-class Navan maiden (6f) last month; 2l to find with Ipanema Beach on that run but bred to relish this longer trip and likely improver.

Comment: St Mark's Basilica colt is second foal of a 1m/9.4f (Listed) winner (RPR 104), closely related to useful winners Wargrave (7f/1m2f; 2m hurdle) and Ahandfulofsummers (1m1f); newcomer probably best watched in what could be a hot maiden.

Jockey: G M Ryan Trainer: Diego Dias Age/Wt: 3/9-3 F: 4650-2 OR: 80

11/4

Comment: Debut promise behind two high-class 2yo fillies in Curragh maiden last summer probably flattered her and she came up short when highly tried afterwards; good run back to maiden company on last month's Gowran return, coming home best of all for second (Hopes Are High third and Dahoma fourth) over 7f (soft); shapes as though she'll stay 1m and leading player if she does.

25/1

Comment: Habitual slow-starter whose five wins have all been at 7f; once again did himself no favours at the start on latest when strong-finishing third (Finsceal Annie second) at the Curragh early this month; well worth another try at 1m and wide draw may not be as much a negative as for others.

Comment: Off the mark on yard debut for Eamonn O'Connell in 1m Dundalk maiden in February, joined current yard after finishing third (behind Notforalongtime) in claimer there in March over inadequate 7f; return to 1m to suit on first turf start in 11 months but shocker of a draw.

Comment: Champion stayer of recent years attempts to win this for the third time in the last four years; unblemished record last season included wins at the highest level in Ascot and Goodwood Cups, Irish St Leger and Prix Du Cadran; reappeared for traditional Vintage Crop win at Navan last month and another straightforward task here en route to Ascot.

Comment: Very lightly raced half-brother to top-class Ghaiyyath; landed 1m2f maiden here on second start last summer but was off the track until last month when well held in Group 2 at Cologne over 1m4f, weakening final 2f; step up in trip doesn't appear an obvious route but still unexposed.

Comment: Smart handicap form in 2023 included C&D win in premier handicap; below par during a light campaign last year but much more encouraging effort on second start this term when forcing pace in 1m4f Cork handicap 10 days ago, rallying well when beaten a neck; less negatives than some of these regarding trip and ground so could be the one to follow Kyprios home.

Jockey: R Donaghue-Leahy Trainer: Patrick J Flynn Age/Wt: 6/9-12 F: 115-88 OR: 78

10/1

Comment: AW winner is 3-19 on turf; two of those turf wins came under this rider last season at Cork (1m2f, good) off 63 and Tipperary (12.5f, gd-fm) off 71; remains 7lb above last success and no impact in last three handicaps; may need more respite from the handicapper.

Burren Song

Jockey: Miss J Walton Trainer: Ciaran Murphy Age/Wt: 7/10-3 F: 92465- OR: 83

12/1

Comment: Second runner for yard; three-time winner on turf on the Flat; last win came over C&D in May 2023 off 84; went close under this rider off 86 at the Curragh in October; 3lb lower now and fit from hurdling; interesting in first-time blinkers.

Jockey: Miss H M Smullen Trainer: Gordon Elliott Age/Wt: 4/9-12 F: 22056- OR: 78

14/1

Comment: Hurdles winner is 0-7 on the Flat with four of those runs coming on turf; went close in a 1m1f maiden here on good ground last summer for Johnny Murtagh and has been in good form over timber for current yard; nicely drawn, will like the ground and could go well.

Jockey: Caragh Monaghan Trainer: A J Martin Age/Wt: 6/9-7 F: 234-0 OR: 73

16/1

Comment: Dual-purpose; 1-11 on turf on the Flat but that sole win came in 2021; beaten 14l over 1m2f (good) here last month; just 1lb lower now and best recent form is on the AW; others hold more pressing claims.

33/1

Comment: Sole win came at this track over 1m (good) but that was back in 2021 for Jessica Harrington; minor promise when finishing in midfield on second start for this yard after mammoth layoff at Tipperary; needs more.

33/1

Comment: One of two for yard; dual-purpose course winner on the Flat and over hurdles; has won seven races including three on turf on the Flat; remains 9lb above last turf win and his best form on the Flat is over shorter; well beaten here five days ago; others appeal more.

50/1

Comment: Two-time AW winner is 0-3 on turf; ran okay when fifth in a Punchestown maiden (1m1f) on good ground last September; beaten favourite off this mark when last seen at Dundalk in March; stamina to prove and others appeal more.

Dubai Leader

Jockey: Ms L Dowdall Trainer: Donal Kinsella Age/Wt: 6/9-12 F: 0500-0 OR: 78

50/1

Comment: Won three for the Johnstons in Britain, two on quick turf at 1m2f-1m4f; best run for this yard here over 1m7f (good) for this rider last July; poor since and never in contention on seasonal reappearance at Cork (1m, good); this trip more suitable and 3lb below last win but others look more likely.

Solomon

Jockey: Ms N A Kane Trainer: Denis Gerard Hogan Age/Wt: 4/10-8 F: -500 OR: 88

80/1

Comment: AW winner is 1-6 on turf; that win came off 85 at Haydock (1m2f, good) for William Haggas last August; has failed to beat a rival in three runs for current yard; cheekpieces worn last time discarded; hard to fancy on recent exploits.

Hibernia Oppositus

Jockey: R Kinkaid Trainer: John C McConnell Age/Wt: 6/9-6 F: 432/0- OR: 72

125/1

Comment: Promise in all four maiden runs in 2022 for Joseph O'Brien at 1m-1m4f at Dundalk and at the Curragh; off 657 days and ran poorly on sole start for current yard at Galway last August; now returns from another absence and can only be watched on handicap debut.

Autocrat

Jockey: Neve Bennett Trainer: R Donohoe Age/Wt: 5/9-1 F: 513562 OR: 67

Comment: Turf maiden won off 73 at Dundalk in January; fine effort off this mark on latest at Roscommon (1m4f, good) four days ago when arguably a shade unlucky; ran well in a maiden here back in 2022; claims once this run doesn't come too soon.
