Inadequate trip latest; top-weight respected on handicap debut
2 (2)	La Dame Blanche Bay J:Ronan Whelan T:W Ross	J:Ronan Whelan T:W Ross	131	—	0-2181	84	98	71	16d	—	—	-4	13.7	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Vastly improved mare of late; may have more to offer although this drop in trip not ideal
3 (7)	No Niki No Bay J:Chris Hayes T:E J O'Neill	J:Chris Hayes T:E J O'Neill	130	p	0-4022	83	98	87	19d	—	—	-3	13	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Good runs in defeat of late over 1m5f; prominent racer should be okay with drop in trip
7 (3)	Shavasi Bay J:Nathan Crosse T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	J:Nathan Crosse T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	119	—	831	80	89	63	22d	—	—	+9	24	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Officially 2lb wrong on handicap debut but could well improve enough to play leading role
5 (4)	Solar Breeze Bay J:James Ryan(5) T:Daniel McLoughlin	J:James Ryan(5) T:Daniel McLoughlin	125	—	9-2065	78	99	72	46d	—	—	-1	10.3	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Not beaten far in Ulster Oaks last time when left with plenty to do; don't rule out
6 (1)	Letiza Bay J:Rory Cleary T:Thomas Dowling	J:Rory Cleary T:Thomas Dowling	120	p	0-0957	73	98	54	27d	—	—	+3	7	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Just fair handicap form, not much to suggest she'll play a major role here
4 (5)	First Snow Moon Bay J:Gary Carroll T:Michael William O'Meara	J:Gary Carroll T:Michael William O'Meara	126	h	340-89	79	96	28	36d	—	—	+5	8	8.25/1	33/1 3%
French win (1m1f) came on heavy, two runs for current yard underwhelming; hard to fancy
