This looks decidedly trappy but FAIR DAMSEL arrives less exposed than most and, having run her best race to date when runner-up behind re-opposing Itsalonglongroad at Thurles, she could well be up to turning the tables with the cheekpieces fitted for the first time. Bayou Belle and Astrophysicist are others fancied to feature.
