Ryan Moore will ride PLEASED (6) for the first time after she made a quiet debut in a 2400m contest at Limerick back in April. Will have learned plenty from that experience and could prove a different proposition here. Must be given plenty of consideration. I HOPE YOU DANCE (3) managed to place on two of her four attempts with both of those coming this season. Unlikely to be too far away. ARRIETTY (2) was runner up past three attempts. New trip might unlock further potential. Rates highly. KASHALA (4) makes debut for Dermot Weld and comes from a fine family. Dam won a G3 and deserves a market check.

At debut, came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 7 at Limerick on April 25 over 2414m, 9 len behind Chablis Rock carrying 58.5kg at $6. Better for that hit-out and likely to be highly competitive again.
