Siena Star (IRE) Slight concern about the trip but interesting jockey booking.
Trusted Mole (IRE) Consistent in theis grade; shouldn't be too far away.
Minus Four (IRE) No show in three maiden tries.
Northern Raider (IRE) Probably back to best trip but still major doubts here.
Plough Boy Winner over a mile in this grade but didn't look altogether happy over 1m2f latest.
Prince Millennium First time over the trip but Richard Hannon is capable of working oracle here.
Rock'n Cold (IRE) Fair effort in a low grade Epsom handicap; should go well at big odds.
Silver Chevalier (IRE) Opposed.
Something Special Looks nothing special on flat form.
Dark Fairy Has a squeak on a Nottingham maiden fourth but market is probably best guide today.
