Another maximum field with a Ballydoyle representative likely to start favourite again. Blue Planet was easy to back over 7f at Dundalk in October but ran a nice race to finish third and will have strengthened up over the winter. SAATTY finished upsides fellow debutant Valhalla's Dream here last month but was the one showing obvious signs of inexperience. He looks a to have a plum draw against the rails today and there should be plenty more to come. Harannda’s run at Naas last month was too bad to be true but she now has plenty to find with Notoriously Risky. Elanora was set some stiff tasks before finishing second at Naas in October and Give Her A Squeeze is another filly with decent claims though, like Yulong De Legend, she is starting to look a little exposed.
