Storm Miami (9/4), Alabama (3/1), Gunzburg (3/1), Ashwiyaa (13/2), Rush Queen (7/1), Asean (17/2), G'day Mate (9/1), Son Of Corballis (9/1), Brighter (25/1), Sturlasson (40/1)

STORM MIAMI was beaten only on the nod in the Marwell Stakes at Naas last time and Ger Lyons' filly appeals as the runner with the greatest scope for progress. Alabama finished just behind Son of Corballis when the pair met in this grade at Tipperary but looks capable of turning that form around, so rates as the biggest threat, though Son of Corballis himself and Rush Queen also are tricky to rule out.
