Whitethorne Scent has been racing over further on ground with some give and did better at Galway though whether she'll be suited by these conditions is unknown. Bonnie Acclamation came with a good run over 6f here last month and looked like winning but his effort petered out in the closing stages. He may do better but Majestic Pearl, who has some strong form to his credit, is still a maiden after 24 starts though has dropped in the weights accordingly. He can prove the main threat to CINNIN OIR, another who looks to have dropped to a fair mark and who hasn't been beaten far in recent runs and has Seamie Heffernan in the saddle.
