The filly Telepathy has moved from France where she had some decent form in handicaps while Minnie Haha, who wasn't beaten far in decent maidens in the autumn, will have come on a bundle for her recent comeback at Navan. Dermot Weld has two entries with JASSAAR looking the one to beat. Runner-up to the ill-fated Sir Erec at the Curragh in August, he's been gelded and looks the type to pick up a nice prize this summer. Stable companion Mujid is by Frankel out of Irish 1000 Guineas winner Bethrah while Johnny Drama was only just beaten over 1m4f at Naas in November and Colin Keane is likely to make good use of his stamina.
