San Salvador looks easily the best of those with experience though he'll need to improve from his run at Naas in February. Grand Paradis is a half-brother to four winners in France and stable companion Champagne Sparkles is the first foal of a mare from a top-class family. Barry Connell's yard has been going well and GOOD LAND is a half-brother to a winning bumper out of a mare who also won a bumper so he should have more basic pace than most of these. The market is best watched for clues to the remainder with Sage Boat being of particular interest.
