Verdict: Runner-up on her debut over 5f here in July, TORNADO KISS may find enough improvement to go one better in a competitive maiden. You'll Think Of Me and Luna Mia appeal as likely future winners. Newcomer Lumiere Des Etoile has strong pedigree claims, and Salama Blue Point scores well on that basis too. [Alan Sweetman]

Comment: Beaten only a neck over 5f here in July, will not need to improve much to go one better; winner finished sixth in a valuable sales race at the Currgah on Sunday.

10/3

Comment: 500,000gns yearling; first foal; dam 7f Group 3 winner at three for Aidan O'Brien; looked raw when unplaced favourite at the Curragh; was slightly impeded before weakening late; went very close over C&D on her second start and looks almost certain to be in the mix.

Comment: Beaten a head first time out at Listowel; was keeping good company (Lady Iman second) when fourth of six in a 6f Group 2 at the Curragh; found 5f inadequate at Goodwood; trouble in running when fourth over 7f at this venue; 5l second at Gowran last time; overall credentials appear solid.

Comment: Made her debut in a 28-runner maiden at the Curragh; her showing was much better than implied by her finishing position in tenth, since she was second in her group of 11; again indicated ability when a staying-on sixth behind a well-fancied stablemate over C&D on her second start.

Verdict: In what looks like an ordinary maiden for this venue, Aidan O'Brien's once-raced Savile Row is an obvious contender despite not being guaranteed to benefit from a drop in trip. It may be worth opposing him with the Michael O'Callaghan-trained newcomer ROARING FIRE who obtained barrier trial experience last month. Sparky Sparky is an unknown quantity who could feature. [Alan Sweetman]

Savile Row

Jockey: M Crehan Trainer: A P O'Brien Age/Wt: 2/9-5 F: 9

21/10

Comment: 400,000gns yearling; half-brother by No Nay Never to five winners; dam stayed 1m6f, half-sister to 1,000 Guineas winner Miss France; not sure to benefit from the drop in trip following a satisfactory debut over 7f at the Curragh; respected all the same in a race that may not take much winning.

Sparky Sparky

3/1

Comment: E260,000 yearling; third foal; dam failed to win from 19 attempts, half-sister to 7f Group 3 winner Iveagh Gardens, out of unraced half-sister to Coventry Stakes winner CD Europe; interesting for in-form stable.

Roaring Fire

Jockey: C T Keane Trainer: M D O'Callaghan Age/Wt: 2/9-5

7/2

Comment: £60,000 Goffs UK Breeze Up purchase; ninth foal; half-brother to four winners, including Group 3 scorer Eddie's Boy; dam placed 5f, half-sister to 5f Listed winner Swiss Lake; likely to be well primed for his debut; well worth considering with established form in short supply; third in a Leopardstown barrier trial last month.

Shadow Run

Jockey: Jamie Powell Trainer: M D O'Callaghan Age/Wt: 2/9-5 F: 0

11/2

Comment: Mehmas colt; 140,000gns breeze-up buy; dam 5f/6f winner with a solid record at stud, best of her progeny is this colt's brother, Caturra, winner of the Flying Childers and Rose Bowl; was noted making late progress on debut at the Curragh (7f), ending up roughly 2l behind ninth-placed Savile Row.

Verdict: The experience gained by NAMIID is seven outings may prove decisive. Placed in four of her seven races, including a Listed event, she faces a potentially smart filly in the once-raced Aegina who finished in front of the subsequent Norfolk Stakes winner Charles Darwin when second at the Curragh in April. Improvement can be expected from Controlled. [Alan Sweetman]

Verdict: This maiden claimer shouldn't take much winning. Ipanema Beach sets the standard on his best efforts but he ran poorly in a maiden claimer last time and preference is for DARWIN'S ANGEL. She is at least heading in the right direction after a fourth in a handicap last time and there's a good chance she'll improve again for further. Positive market moves for Leblon Sunshine would be worth noting on debut. [Phill Anderson]

Verdict: After a much improved effort on his handicap debut at Killarney last month, THE HOLY APOSTLE looks like a major player from this same mark and there should be more to come at this sort of distance.

Verdict: There was plenty to like about the debut of PRIME ARTIST (nap) in the valuable sales race at the Curragh on Sunday and that's an effort worth marking up given that he was slowly away and met some trouble in running. He was only a neck behind an 88-rated rival and he looks up to conceding weight to these rivals. Madbadanddangerous could be the main threat after his eyecatching debut when runner-up at Tipperary and Duke Of Cumblerand should be in the mix given we know he handles conditions. [Phill Anderson]

Comment: Improved from debut when only beaten roughly 2l in a 7f Down Royal maiden 13 days ago; others bring stronger form to the table though.

Johnny Soda

Jockey: Adam Caffrey Trainer: Adrian McGuinness Age/Wt: 2/9-3

18/1

Comment: Cotai Glory colt; cost 28,000gns as a yearling and 60,000gns as a 2yo breeze-up purchase; brother to 6f 2yo winner Selection (RPR 72), half-brother to three winners including Rollicking (5f-1m including 2yo/Germany; 77) and Masters Apprentice (1m6f AW, 74; 2m hurdle); dam unraced half-sister to 1m Group 2 winner Baqah; battled on well when second in a recent barrier trial; one of the more interesting newcomers but has stall 16 to overcome.

Sagasti

Jockey: R P Cleary Trainer: Ms Sheila Lavery Age/Wt: 2/8-8

22/1

Comment: Supremacy filly; half-sister to 1m3f AW winner Lennox (RPR 83); dam 13.3f AW winner (82), half-sister to winners James Garfield (6f 2yo Group 2) and Eva Marie (useful 1m-1m2f); encouraging run in a barrier trial but may come into her own over a bit further.

Tenacious

Jockey: Shane Foley Trainer: Mrs John Harrington Age/Wt: 2/8-12 F: 0

25/1

Comment: Well held when 17-2 in a fillies' maiden at Gowran on debut and this is a lot tougher.

Jockey: Leigh Roche Trainer: Mark Fahey Age/Wt: 2/8-8

66/1

Comment: Circus Maximus filly; half-sister to 6f/7f winner Pembrokeshire (including 2yo; RPR 83); dam French 1m winner (75), closely related to French Listed-placed 6.5f 2yo winner Hyper Hyper, out of half-sister to 1m Group 1 winner Giofra; probably a suitable trip but this looks tough for a newcomer.

Verdict: After a highly encouraging run in a recent barrier trial when showing a smart turn of foot, BREAKING DAWN appeals most for a yard that do well with their juveniles. Sindagan and Cape Primrose are both well bred sorts that are worth keeping an eye on in the market and Back To Me isn't ruled out for a yard flying with their juveniles this term. [Phill Anderson]

11	Port Ferdinand Jockey: R P Whelan Trainer: A P O'Brien Age/Wt: 2/9-7	11/4
Comment: Camelot colt; half-brother to 1m/10.5f winner King Lear (including Spain; RPR 99); dam 7f/1m winner (including 2yo/two Group 1s; 118); suspicion this will be his bare minimum trip and yard's newcomers often need the run but any market support worth noting.
3	Bamako Beach Jockey: C T Keane Trainer: M D O'Callaghan Age/Wt: 2/9-7	9/2
Comment: Sands Of Mali colt; cost 72,000gns as a 2yo; half-brother to Danish 7f/1m winner Awesome Lawson; dam 5f winner (RPR 71), half-sister to winners Lujeanie (6f) and Ivory Silk (5f-7f), out of 5f Listed winner; yard get plenty of 2yo winners and any support for this colt would be worth noting.
5	Eniac Jockey: Gavin Ryan Trainer: Donnacha Aidan O'Brien Age/Wt: 2/9-7	6/1
Comment: Siyouni colt; half-brother to four winners including King Of Koji (Japanese 1m-12.5f including Grade 2; RPR 115), Harajuku (French 7f 2yo/10.5f Group 3; 109) and Chichen Itza (12.5f/2m AW; 90); dam 1m3f/1m4f winner (95); stayed on well to finish second in a barrier trial but gave the impression he'll be better over further than this and his pedigree suggests as much.
13	The Shandyman Jockey: J M Sheridan Trainer: W P Mullins Age/Wt: 2/9-7	13/2
Comment: Son of Cracksman; cost 90,000Euros as a yearling; dam French 7f turf 2yo/1m2f AW winner, half-sister to useful 1m-1m2f winner Palavas, is granddaughter of 1m Listed winning half-sister to Arc winner Peintre Celebre; likely to need further and he's already been gelded; stall 16 to overcome too.
9	Kactus Jack Jockey: Shane Foley Trainer: Mrs John Harrington Age/Wt: 2/9-7	7/1
Comment: Kodi Bear colt; closely related to 5f 2yo winner Sows (RPR 86), half-brother to winners Seaward (1m 2yo; 95) and Closefield Belle (French 1m-1m2f); dam Listed-placed 1m/1m1f winner (100); closely matched on barrier trial form with Eniac after a close up third; should have got plenty from that experience but yard quieter than usual with their 2yos this term.
14	Cape Primrose Jockey: J Cleary Trainer: A P O'Brien Age/Wt: 2/9-2	7/1
Comment: St Mark's Basilica filly; half-sister to four winners including Delphinia (1m turf 2yo/1m5f AW Listed; RPR 114), Delano Roosevelt (1m 2yo; 111) and Indian Maharaja (7.4f/1m 2yo including Listed; 102); dam 7f/1m winner (including 2yo/Irish 1,000 Guineas; 114); yard's newcomers can need the run but warrants respect given her pedigree which features plenty of 2yo winners.
6	Gatlinburg Jockey: C T Hayes Trainer: Donnacha Aidan O'Brien Age/Wt: 2/9-7	9/1
Comment: Churchill colt; closely related to winners Moon Daisy (1m4f/13.5f; RPR 97), Lullaby (1m; 93) and Lampetia (1m2f; 75), half-brother to three more including Mountain Bear (6f/7f 2yo including Listed/1m US Grade 1-placed; 115); dam unplaced 2yo (62); both sire's and dam sire's progeny often want it quicker than what's likely.
12	Sindagan Jockey: B M Coen Trainer: J P Murtagh Age/Wt: 2/9-7	11/1
Comment: Mehmas colt; dam 7f winner (including AW; RPR 85), half-sister to winners Sonaiyla (6f Group 3) and Silmaniya (useful 5f 2yo), out of 7f 2yo winner; well bred newcomer and 2yo winners in his pedigree; not an easy task from stall 15 but market support would be significant.
17	Itsgettinhotinhere Jockey: Reserve 1 Trainer: David Marnane Age/Wt: 2/9-7	14/1
Comment: First reserve; Too Darn Hot colt; closely related to 2m1f hurdle winner Radar Ahead; dam unraced half-sister to winners Dubawi Gold (1m Group 2), Fort Knox (smart 6.5f/1m) and Savannah Storm (useful 1m2f); encouraging run in barrier trial when showing up well for a long way.
4	Breaking Dawn Jockey: Leigh Roche Trainer: M D O'Callaghan Age/Wt: 2/9-7	16/1
Comment: Twilight Son colt; cost 45,000gns as a foal and 47,000gns as a 2yo breeze-up purchase; half-brother to winners Demi Pointe (6f AW 2yo; RPR 94) and City King (UAE 1m dirt; 76); dam 6f-1m winner (including 2yo/Listed; 103), half-sister to 6f Listed winner Jane's Memory; showed a good turn of foot when going clear in a barrier trial only to be caught on the line; should have learnt plenty from that.
1	African Affair Jockey: R C Colgan Trainer: Ms Sheila Lavery Age/Wt: 2/9-7	33/1
Comment: Sands Of Mali colt; cost 5,000Euros as a yearling; half-brother to Italian winners Killer Mamba (prolific 6f-1m), Troublesome (7f-1m1f) and Taipan Kill (7f/1m); dam 5f AW 2yo winner (RPR 69), half-sister to 1m2f Group 3 winner Euphrasia; well held in a barrier trial and likely best watched.

16	Storm Petrel Jockey: Killian Leonard Trainer: Ms M McDowall Age/Wt: 2/9-2	50/1
Comment: Gleneagles filly; cost 19,000Euros as a foal; dam unplaced 7f/1m (RPR 54), half-sister to winners Amade (US 2m Grade 2) and Nakuti (1m Group 3), out of maiden half-sister to 1m/1m2f Listed winner Arch Rebel; may need a bit further than this.
2	Back To Me Jockey: Adam Caffrey Trainer: Adrian Murray Age/Wt: 2/9-7	60/1
Comment: Magna Grecia colt; cost 1,000Eur as a yearling; dam unraced half-sister to useful Fleetfoot (1m-12.4f) and Mashaaer (1m); yard 7-31 with their 2yos in Ireland this season and warrants a market check.
