| Bred to be smart and made a winning debut at Naas last summer, before a good third in listed race at Leopardstown. Possibly unsuited by heavy ground next time and could take a step forward from her recent return in Priory Belle at Leopardstown. Hood wore last time discarded. | ||||||||

| Dubawi half-sister to numerous winners, including 2000 Guineas/Irish 2000 Guineas winner Gleneagles, and settled things in a matter of strides when winning maiden at Naas on debut 6 weeks ago. Most exciting prospect for her leading yard. | ||||||||

| Off the mark at fifth time of asking in maiden at Gowran in September. However, well held in the Weld Park here (7f) on final outing, before mid-field in Priory Belle at Leopardstown on return. Should at least be suited by this step up to 1m. | ||||||||

| Barrier trial winner who shaped encouragingly 5 months on from Rules debut when third in 7f maiden at Galway in October. Upped further in trip, off the mark in good style at Dundalk (1m) in November and she now takes her chance in this higher grade on return. | ||||||||

DROP DEAD GORGEOUS looked something out of the ordinary when making a successful debut at Naas in March and she is open to significant improvement with that experience behind her. She could be up to getting the better of Group 3 winner Black Caviar Gold, who had an excuse on her reappearance, while Sinmara was impressive when winning her maiden. |
