J: Dylan Browne McMonagle

T: Joseph Patrick O’Brien

Group 3/Listed winner with best form on heavy ground; needs to bounce back from indifferent Gowran run, when Improvista and Azada finished in front of her; may have needed that on first run since Group 2 second at the Curragh in May; first-time cheekpieces; any further easing would help.
