Broken Barricades (IRE) Only raced on fast.
Turbo (IRE) Has gone on heavy ground before; plenty exposed but drawn low.

National Park Runs here in preference to an Ascot race; couldn't be written off.
Forest Prize Put in two wins at Haydock but yet to race on soft.
Creskeld (IRE) Fair efforts on soft on opening two racecourse appearances; trip might be a bit far.
Funksoulborough (IRE) Yet to race on a surface like this.
Effervescing Definite ability but no proven form on soft.
Ellen Mooney Former trainer stated that she is best on soft but draw is awful.
Ischia Didn't do too much on heavy ground but any money would be interesting.
Tucker Fence Has seen plenty of action this season and can be opposed here.
Miss Jingles Exposed and no evidence to suggest that soft ground will suit.
Omey Strand (IRE) Appears to be a firm ground specialist.
