Themis
Did hold an Irish Oaks entry but had shown little over 7f/1m until ready winner of a restricted C&D maiden on soft ground last month; bred for this trip, saw it out well and would probably stay farther if asked; up 9lb and faster ground to contend with, but she's probably just getting going now.

Bell Ex Too
Handicap debutant whose middle maiden run, over this trip at Dundalk, was decent; trainer's course record on the Flat (6-11 last four seasons, and 3-3 this year) is certainly a positive and looks like one that could be competitive now given a mark.

His first maiden run, fifth over 1m2f at Leopardstown, was his best; 11s for the 1m4f Apprentice Derby at the Curragh, didn't settle effectively in front and faded in the last quarter-mile.

Hassaniya
Fair runs in maidens before stepping up in trip for handicap debut at Down Royal, beaten 8l when third over 1m2f; hard to know if this trip will suit, but there are middle-distance winners on dam's side of pedigree; gets fast ground for the first time here.

Maxminelli
Improved for having tongue tied in recent restricted-maiden outings; went close over 9.5f at Ballinrobe and third to subsequent wide-margin handicap winner Teologia over 10.5f (good) at Down Royal; holds Hassaniya on collateral form with the latter; first handicap.

Lamberella
Mildly promising runs in two maidens and a Curragh handicap in the spring (7f/1m); maybe soft ground was the reason she bombed over 1m1f at Leopardstown last month; tongue-tie now fitted and stamina to prove over this far.
