57 Expert View: Never put into the race, improved on final qualifying run down the field in a maiden at Leopardstown most recent; trainer in form; tongue-tie first time; bred to get middle distances; from top yard and could progress in handicaps.

GLAMAZON arrives here on the back of a fair effort over C&D and is obviously one for the shortlist. She came from off the pace when a never-nearer third, finishing just ahead of Dawn Flame, and she might well do better from a more favourable draw now. Another with a low draw is Beau Army, who had a number of these behind her when winning over 7f at Gowran Park earlier this month. Her form is closely matched with that of Cause I Like You, who can't be ruled out despite her wide draw. Aiteall starts off in handicaps after three runs in maiden races in the space of just two weeks and he should have his chance too.
GLAMAZON appears flattered by her maiden win but still looks on a good mark based on her recent return to form over C&D. She was given too much to do that day but her mark has generously been left alone by the handicapper. The admirably consistent Dawn Flame was only a place behind the selection here last time and looks the obvious danger while at a bigger price Thumama Sands is of some interest. He had no chance on his handicap debut from a poor draw after missing the break but may be capable of better now upped to 1m.
