While Sweetest is sure to prove all the rage, it might be worth taking her on. Returned an odds-on chance on her two starts to date, she had to settle for minor honours on both occasions. For a selection, EMERALD BANNER gets the nod. A sister to Group 1 winner Millisle, she improved from start one to two, going down by just three-parts-of-a-length on her latest outing at Navan. Vivienda ran a fine race to finish third on debut over the course and distance last month and with that experience under her belt, it'll come as no surprise if she manages to go a few places better now. Ringabella is perhaps the most interesting of the five newcomers in the line-up. She holds an entry in the Cheveley Park Stakes and is a half-sister to Waikuku and Waipiro, with the former a three-time winner at the highest level in Hong Kong.

SWEETEST again failed to justify cramped odds in a C&D maiden 18 days ago, yet that shouldn't detract from what was another promising effort from Aidan O'Brien's filly and, with further progress on the cards, she can make it third time lucky. Emerald Banner, back up in trip, and Vivienda, who was a place behind the selection on her debut, head up the dangers.

Having gone close against what looks a smart colt over 5f at Navan last time, EMERALD BANNER can go one better today.

Out of American Grade 3 winner Hostess, MILITARY won't have to be a star to take this on debut. Bought for 375,000 guineas as a yearling, the Siyouni colt holds a whole host of big race entries. The 84-rated Mr Saturday is the obvious danger. He filled the runner-up spot on his first two starts, but has been disappointing since. Ger Lyons looks to have found a nice opportunity for the Blue Point gelding and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to make the breakthrough. Darren Bunyan has his horses in fine form of late and his Valentino Express warrants respect after finishing a solid sixth on debut over the course and distance. Laugier Night is a half-brother to La Pelosa, a winner at the highest level in America, and the Noel Meade-trained colt is another for the shortlist.

MILITARY makes plenty of appeal on paper starting out for Aidan O'Brien and boasts some tasty entries, so it would be no surprise to see him make a winning start in a pretty thin maiden. Mr Saturday sets the standard and is the clear danger.

The expensively-bought Ballydoyle colt MILITARY is by the same sire as current stars Paddington and Tahiyra, so could well win on debut

KING CUAN didn't live up to market expectations when fourth to Nemonte at the Curragh in May when both horses were making their debuts. Given plenty of time to mature by Paddy Twomey, the Tasleet colt bolted up in a maiden on quick ground at Cork last week and can reverse form with his Curragh conqueror. Nemonte, who recorded a second win at Roscommon last month, hasn't been able to land a blow in Group company including at Leopardstown last weekend and may be better suited by an extra furlong. James's Delight made a winning start at Newbury in July and wasn't beaten far when fourth in another novice contest at Windsor. Jakajaro has shown smart form in nurseries and was giving away lumps of weight when fourth to Duplantis at the Curragh last month.

A valuable contest. KING CUAN looked highly promising when effortlessly drawing clear of his rivals in a Cork auction event last week and could take a bit of stopping assuming he can cope with 2 outings in fairly quick succession. The Clive Cox-trained British raider James's Delight is another who is likely capable of better after only 2 starts and is second choice ahead of Jakajaro and Nemonte.

Given a break after being an unlucky loser behind Nemonte on debut, KING CUAN bolted up at Cork recently and will take stopping.

BUDDY BATT, from a useful sprinting family, led home a 1-2-4 for the Bunyan stable in a Bellewstown maiden over this trip last month. He goes well for 7lb claimer Dean Curran and can make a successful transition to handicap company. Glamorously ran well in a C&D maiden in July and had Veracidad back in third when runner-up in a nursery over a bit further at Navan. She was no match for the winner who lines up in the preceding sales race but may be suited by the return to the minimum distance. Si Senior didn't give her running last time when well behind Glamorously but if returning to the form of her maiden win at Sligo would be a major player while Milliethemollie ran well over C&D on her second start and may be able to make an impact with headgear fitted for her handicap bow.

BUDDY BATT showed big improvement when off the mark in a Bellewstown maiden and he's taken to follow up off what looks a handy opening mark. Glamorously and Veracidad can place again.

With Dean Curran taking off 7lb BUDDY BATT has good prospects of adding to his Bellewstown maiden win.

Most of these are open to plenty of improvement on just their first or second starts in handicap company and a chance is taken with TATUM. Noel Meade's daughter of Postponed will probably be one for middle distances next term and will appreciate stepping up to this stiff mile having kept on steadily into fifth in a Galway festival maiden. In-form Jamie Powell's claim leaves her with a nice light weight. Shane Foley sticks with Navan runner-up Guest Star who renews rivalry with Nika Pika but Jessica Harrington's other runner, Pomeriggio, is also of interest in first-time headgear. She stayed on for third at Roscommon and is stoutly bred on the damside so may improve for this longer distance. Sun Never Sets, also fitted with cheekpieces, is another that looks ready for a mile having finished well over 7f when third in a Curragh nursery.

The return to this trip looks a good thing where SUN NEVER SETS is concerned after she kept on into third behind the progressive Asian Daze at the Curragh recently. The addition of cheekpieces may also help eke out a bit more and she gets the nod ahead of Guest Star, who was just touched off by Nika Pika at Navan a fortnight ago and enjoys a healthy pull at the weights with that rival here. Basilah Bear and Enthralling are others with claims in what looks a competitive nursery.

This looks very open. SUN NEVER SETS gets a hopeful vote to step up after a couple of third placings

BRIGHT STRIPES ran a cracker in the valuable Ballyhane Stakes here last month and could prove hard to beat now back in maiden company. The Starsspangledbanner colt ran on strongly close home when third to Golden Trick in the E300,000 contest and a repeat of that performance should be enough to collect now. Byzantine Empress has been knocking on the door but has a mark of 68 and it would be disappointing if Bright Stripes couldn't account for her despite giving away half a stone. Ocean Odyssey could be a potential improver in the field. He went to post favourite on his debut at Leopardstown but after running freely early found trouble in running down the straight before finishing fifth to Making Time. He's capable of stepping forward from that.

While several of these are open to improvement, BRIGHT STRIPES nevertheless stands out on the back his fine effort in a valuable 6f sales race here last month. This step up in trip will be in his favour and he will surely prove hard to beat. Take Me To Church and Ocean Odyssey, both of whom shaped well on their respective debuts at Cork and Leopardstown, are feared most in that order of preference, while Special Angel may also build on the promise she showed at Dundalk.

Best of the home team when third in a valuable sales race here last month, BRIGHT STRIPES will be hard to beat in this company

All eyes will be on GALLANTLY here with the Frankel colt rumoured to be the horse that Seamie Heffernan was referring to when he said that the best Ballydoyle two-year-old had yet to hit the track. The Frankel colt is the first foal of French Guineas winner Precieuse and holds an entry in next month's Dewhurst. No form to go in this and the market may prove the best guide. Jessica Harrington's newcomer Bluedrum is by Blue Point and she is out of Drumfad Bay, a listed winner for the yard a few years ago. Donnacha O'Brien's charge At Dawn is another nicely bred debutante. She is by the legendary Galileo out of Group 3 winner Coral Beach.

Aidan O'Brien and Jessica Harrington have dominated this newcomers' maiden and GALLANTLY and Bluedrum might be the pair to focus on before market clues. Keeper's Heart is another to note.

The Aidan O'Brien-trained GALLANTLY sticks out here as a colt by Frankel out of a French Guineas winner. He is rumoured to be smart.
