Bocca Baciata improved with each run in her opening campaign and was an impressive maiden winner here in October so deserves her place in this Listed contest. Cocoon and DIAMONDSANDRUBIES represent Ballydoyle and though the former is much more experienced it's the latter, who beat the odds-on Chinese Light in very impressive fashion at Tipperary last week, who can progress enough to take this. Pleascach is in every Group 1 available to her which is hardly surprising given her easy victory at Leopardstown in July. She's unlikely to be short of fitness and that's certainly the case with Summaya, who comfortably beat subsequent winner Hans Holbein at Cork with the suggestion there was much more to come.
