Verdict
Srucahan couldn't handle Listed company here last time but had some decent form previously and looks certain to give a good account. Fast Finian makes his debut on the surface but ran on strongly over 5f at Cork last month and the extra furlong is in his favour. Harry Trotter has run three times over 7f on turf so whether he'll have the pace for this is debatable while Nero Emperor hasn't been seen since making a promising debut in April and could just need this. REACHING makes her debut for Aidan O'Brien and this daughter of Dansili is related to several classy performers and can make a winning start. Two Cities and Wasabi's House are other newcomers to note.
