Alonzo
Frankel colt was pulled up after losing his action early in a Leopardstown maiden in July; second string of the stable runners here but should be worth watching.

Caught the eye when a staying-on fifth in a Dundalk maiden in November; likely to be suited by this sort of trip and should go well.

Birdman
Third foal; half-brother to 6f/7f AW 2yo winner Manhattanville (RPR 83); dam 1m winner (78), out of 1m2f/1m4f winning half-sister to Group 3 winners Elusive Pimpernel (7f/1m) and Palavicini (1m1f), is granddaughter of 1m4f winner; should stay well and probably best watched on debut; stable hitting form though.

Casapulla
Last after a slow start for the Hartys in a Dundalk maiden in October; looks very much up against it on his seasonal and stable debut.

Good finishing effort in a Leopardstown maiden two weeks ago; step up in trip should suit and should show some improvement on this better ground.
