Half of these are track winners with Lustown Baba having scored twice from three starts here, both over the trip on soft ground. Back To Brussels has been staying on over 5f in Listed company at Naas the last twice and finished in front of Romantic Proposal there last time. He was conceding 6lb to SONAIYLA when narrowly beaten at Cork last summer but the latter has made the greater strides with a neck defeat by Glen Shiel over this track and trip in August the highlight. Paddy Twomey's mare ran very well on her reappearance in a Group 2 here last month and looks the one to beat. The three-year-old Thunder Beauty took her chance in the Irish 1,000 Guineas but finished last and reverts to the distance over which she made a successful debut here last July. More Beautiful is another who may benefit from the drop in trip.
