GLITTERING GEM made a promising debut when only weakening in the closing stages over 1m2f at the Curragh last month and, with the benefit of that experience, may open her account at the second attempt. The daughter of Frankel had Dawn Coming over seven lengths in behind and is likely to benefit from a drop in trip. Maestro Bernstein is certainly bred in the purple and took a nice step forward from his debut at Listowel when runner-up over a mile at Naas last Saturday, where he had a number of these rivals well behind. Playin Cool is another to consider.
A competitive maiden, but preference is for PLAYIN COOL. He sets a fair standard after an encouraging third at Punchestown and should be involved again if building on that effort here. Maestro Bernstein looks the main danger, having shaped well when runner-up at Naas and is bred to progress further over this trip. Glittering Gem was well supported on debut, appearing to handle similar ground to this, and is likely to improve for experience to be in the frame.
The yard has won three of the last five runnings of this race. Ran to form when second, beaten 1 1/4l, in the Solonaway Stakes (Group 2) here last time. Suited by 1m, acts on yielding and good ground, and is a major player.
Has won ten races from 7f to 1m on ground varying from good to yielding - soft. Beaten 1 1/4l by Alakazi when second of 9 at 16-1 on his latest outing over this course and distance (good - yielding) last month.

Mutasarref has been a great servant to connections with four of his ten career wins coming here, including this race in 2023. The Ger Lyons-trained gelding ran right up to his best when runner-up to Alakazi over C&D last month but in receipt of 5lb, QUEEN OF THUNDER shades the vote. She had Fingerpaint (third) over three lengths behind when narrowly denied by Princess Child at Tipperary, and is now afforded an ease in class following a creditable effort in the Group 1 Matron Stakes here last month. Soft Winds has yet to win for current connections but her latest Naas effort was much more encouraging, while UK raider Sallaal is another to consider.
MUTASARREF brings the standout recent form after a fine second in the Group 2 Solonaway Stakes and looks the one to beat for Ger Lyons, whose record in this race is excellent. Sallaal, a solid British challenger for Roger Varian, has been holding his own in Listed company and rates a live threat if handling conditions. Queen Of Thunder ran respectably in Group 1 company here last time and should be competitive back in this grade.
Up in class when well beaten in the Foundation Stakes (Listed) over 10f at Goodwood in 2024; showed good form in a French Listed race and a Hamilton novice prior to that; wears a hood for the first time and returns from a long layoff.
A winner at 7f on good to soft ground, but that win was over two years ago. Well beaten at 20-1 behind Novus when eighth of 9 on his latest outing at Goodwood over 1m 2f (heavy) in September last year. He is wearing a hood and a tongue-tie for the first time. Having his first run for a new stable today.

SUMMER SNOW has been progressive since joining Peter Lawlor this year, winning three times, including a triumph over this C&D. She was bidding for a hat-trick when third to Onemoredance here last time but Gloriously Glam, who was nearly three lengths behind, has won twice since to frank that form. Gloriously Glam and Fast Tara fought out the finish of a mile handicap at Navan last week and 7lb claimer Sam Coen is now aboard the former. Dark Viper has generally been frustrating to follow but he did eventually get off the mark over this C&D in March, before shaping with further promise at Punchestown last month.
DARK VIPER has been knocking on the door and looks primed to strike after going down by just half-a-length at Punchestown last time, with conditions and trip ideal for Jessica Harrington's charge. Fast Tara is reliable at this level, going close at Roscommon last time, and handles ease in the ground, so she looks the main danger. Summer Snow is a likeable and progressive filly, winning at Galway two starts back, though she might now be a shade high in the weights.

TRUSTYOURINSTINCT struck for the second time at Group 3 level when on target in the International Stakes over this trip on Irish Derby weekend at the Curragh. The Joseph O'Brien-trained gelding was a shade disappointing over 1m4f here latest but on the balance of form appeals as the one to beat. Acapulco Bay finished in front of the selection in that Leopardstown Group 3 and has been generally consistent this year. Shaool has progressed well in handicaps this term and deserves to take her chance after landing the valuable Northfields Handicap at the Curragh last month.
TRUSTYOURINSTINCT can be forgiven for his latest run over further at this course last time and has a big chance of bouncing back dropped in trip and on the basis of pervious form, with conditions to suit. Acapulco Bay looks to be the first string for Aidan O'Brien, who has a fine record in this race. He shaped well in Group 3 company and looks the progressive danger. Shackleton is a reliable stayer but this shorter trip may blunt his finishing effort.
Well backed when beaten 3 1/2l off 77 over 12f at Dundalk last time; better effort at The Curragh when narrowly beaten off 74 on previous start; effective over 10f and a contender.
Placed once in six starts. Finished 3 1/2l behind Benavente when sixth of 12 at 85-40fav on his latest outing at Dundalk over 1m 4f last month.

KATASHUNA opened her account at the fourth attempt over a mile at Navan last month and that maiden has produced a number of subsequent winners. The Dermot Weld-trained filly has scope for further improvement and could well be suited by this extra distance. Castleheath has proved a good dual-purpose gelding for connections but may struggle to follow up his latest Curragh victory off a 9lb higher mark. Frank Pickle made a bold bid from the front on his penultimate outing at the Curragh while others to consider include Juniper Sling, Lady Plimsoll and Deuteronomy.
KATASHUNA is improving fast and looks well treated on handicap debut after her decisive maiden win by a couple of lengths at Navan, with this extra furlong likely to suit. Lady Plimsoll arrives in consistent form, with a win three starts back and runner-up last time, and should be staying on strongly over this trip. Juniper Sling has the talent to get involved if things fall right from a better draw this time.
Probably needed the run when beaten 9l over 9f at Punchestown last time; likely to prefer 12f and some give but has a bit to prove.

RAILWAYVIEW LADY won a 1m2f Navan maiden last month and subsequently beat all bar favourite Glenroyal when upped in trip on her handicap debut at Down Royal. The Andy Oliver-trained filly can hopefully progress again, and any rain should help her cause. Zoffman won this race off a mark of 85 back in 2022 and after missing most of the following season, has been generally consistent since. He didn't enjoy a clear run when a close fourth behind Fleetfoot in the valuable Ragusa Handicap over this trip at the Curragh on Irish Derby Day and should be suited by this return to 1m4f. Navy Waters and recent Curragh winner Retracement are others to consider.
A tricky Premier Handicap, but Railwayview Lady has been running consistently well and was just denied over a similar trip last time; she looks poised to go close again from a workable mark. Sea Coral brings strong form from higher levels, dropping into handicap company for the first time in a while and shaping as a major danger at this trip. Not Just Any Eagle wasn’t suited by heavy ground last time but has the ability to feature if back to his earlier form.
Ground probably too testing when beaten 7l in a handicap at Listowel last time but had disappointed back in a handicap on his previous start; mark becoming more workable.
A winner at 1m on yielding - soft ground. Finished 7l behind Dragon Of Malta when fifth of 14 at 50-1 on his latest outing at Listowel over 7f (heavy) last month.

SKIPPINANDAJUMPIN showed plenty of promise when beating all bar Spanish Temptress at Killarney earlier this month and makes a quick reappearance following an unlucky effort over this trip at the Curragh on Thursday. The Joseph O'Brien-trained filly was well-backed in that 26-runner event and finished a creditable sixth despite being continually denied a clear passage. Both Pandion Power and Irish Rumour filled the runners-up spot on their respective latest starts and will not be inconvenienced by any rain, while others for the shortlist include Vlhova and Stormie Outlook who are closely matched on running at Listowel last time.
PERFECT BASE showed promise last time and steps up in trip wearing blinkers for the first time; well weighted and should handle the yielding surface, making her the one to beat. Irish Rumour is consistent and ran a close second at Fairyhouse last time, a clear danger if able to overcome a wide draw. Comfort Line struggled last time on soft ground but had shaped well previously over 7f on yielding; could bounce back.
