Plenty of runners but few with realistic chances. Butterfly Island wasn't beaten far in most of her runs last season but KARKIYNA may have her measure. Johnny Murtagh's Caravaggio filly ran very well in strong maiden company throughout her first campaign and didn't quite get the run of the race on last month's reappearance at the Curragh. Pessoa looks best of his stable's three entries with Colin Keane on board and may be good enough to snatch a place.
