Footstepsinthesand colt wasn't discredited on sole 2yo start in hot late-season Leopardstown maiden and reappeared much improved to land 1m maiden there last month, racing keenly but showing good turn of foot a furlong out to quicken right away; looks a nice prospect but fair step up in class here.

Beckman
Surprise debut winner of 6f maiden here last summer but bit exposed in stakes company afterwards, each time staying on as if a step up in trip will suit (not clear run at Dundalk final start); gelded over the winter and step up in trip should suit but others may have greater scope for improvement.

Currawood
Twice runner-up in 2yo maidens and has trained on well to win both starts this season; Dundalk maiden and much improved in new headgear combination and step up to 1m to run away with Cork median auction race on soft; handles this quicker ground and looks ready for this step up in class.

Brother to last year's smart mid-distance filly Wingspan; dam Hydrangea top-class at up to 1m4f; snug winner of 7f maiden here on debut last summer and acquitted himself really on seasonal return over same trip in Listed Gladness Stakes here in March, only run out of second late on, having held every chance; bred to relish this extra furlong and further; big player.

Wootton Bassett half-brother to 1m2f 2yo winner Curran (including AW; RPR 86); dam Group-placed 1m4f winner (99); easy enough to back when making winning debut last month in Dundalk maiden over this trip, asserting inside final furlong to win going away; much more on his plate here.

Night Of Thunder colt closely related to 1m-1m1f winner My Oberon (inc Group 2/AW; RPR 116), half-brother to winners My Prospero (1m/1m2f inc Group 2) and My Astra (1m-1m2f inc Listed); dam 7f 2yo winner (inc Group 3; 108); Dundalk debut win in March looked good but didn't progress as hoped in Newcastle Listed last month, under pressure some way out; questions to answer on turf debut.

No Nay Never filly backed up promising Gowran debut third last September in winning Punchestown fillies maiden a fortnight later, making virtually all; questions asked now stepped up in both trip and class.

Dundalk promise and has shown much improved form on soft ground in fillies maidens, most recently making all for 6l win at Limerick last month over 7f; every chance of staying this extra furlong, interesting to see if she proves as effective on this quicker surface.
