Aidan O'Brien has won this for the past two years and had nine entries at the early stage with three remaining in the line-up. Butterflies is the only one of the trio to have had a run and the half-sister to Giants Causeway will come on markedly for her run at Leopardstown when just in front of Althiba. Bound is the third foal of a mare who has produced two Group winners and has a Moyglare entry while Rhododendron is a sister to two useful winners, though she has no other entries. BEAN FEASA, a half-sister to the brilliant Teofilo, started odds-on for her debut over 6f at Naas in April but couldn't quite hold off the late thrust of Psychedelic Funk. The winner has proved himself one of the best juveniles of the season so Jim Bolger's filly can go one better. Rehana made a very satisfactory start in a very strong Fairyhouse maiden in which the more experienced Fast Lily was just behind while Dermot Weld's newcomer Quick Chat is a half-sister to three winners.
