Verdict

WECOULDAVEHADITALL sets the standard following a much better effort at Naas last time. She's preferred to Heart Of You, who has scope to improve up in trip for new connections. Lake Lugano is another who could feature if blinkers have the desired effect.

13	Improved for the step up in trip/switch to more positive tactics (set a sound gallop) when 1½ lengths third of 13 on nursery debut at Naas (1m, good to soft). Similar performance may be enough to land this ordinary maiden, even with her latest form taking a few knocks since. 1st Pick 13 Wecouldavehaditall (Ire) Jockey: N. M.

10	Fair form in a couple of starts for Mrs J. Harrington, latterly unsuited by the drop to 6f when 2¼-length sixth in a big-field Curragh maiden 7 weeks ago. First-time tongue strap added by new stable and looks one of the more likely winners stepping back up in trip. 2nd Pick 10 Heart Of You (Ire) Jockey: William James Lee Trainer: K. J.

4	Starspangledbanner colt who's needed the experience in 7f maidens at the Curragh/Listowel. In top hands and may well make more impact with first-time blinkers added for this step up in trip. 3rd Pick 4 Lake Lugano (Ire) Jockey: W. M. Lordan Trainer: Aidan O'brien, Ireland J: W. M.
