Hazran was brought with a well-timed run to hold every chance at Naas but probably just lacked peak fitness. He'll be ready for this as will GUINEVERE, who returned from her break to run well behind Tarnawa at Leopardstown. She'll know more here and gets the nod though South Sea Pearl will have come on a bundle for her run at Cork where she didn't get going until too late. Verbalise made a nice start in a big field at Gowran and is another with the scope to do better while Chesapeake Shores is related to a host of winners including Irish Derby winner Frozen Fire.
