Aidan O'Brien will be hoping Wild Wind can add just a second career victory to her CV in the Vincent O'Brien Ruby Stakes at Killarney on Tuesday evening.
Despite her moderate strike-rate, the Danehill Dancer filly has produced several smart performances, notably when third in the French 1000 Guineas, and she wasn't beaten far in the Fairy Bridge Stakes at Tipperary last week.
She was ahead of the reopposing Royal Blue Star on that occasion so has more to fear from fellow Coolmore representative Sapphire Pendant, who was runner-up in the Leopardstown 1,000 Guineas Trial back in the spring.
Stunning View formed part of Dermot Weld's record-breaking week at Galway and even though he steps up from handicaps, he can't be dismissed lightly either.
Weld unleashes a nicely-bred newcomer in the shape of Sunset Stanza, who won't need to be anything too out of the ordinary to make a successful start to his career in the opening www.goracingkillarney.com Maiden at 5.10.
Specification is also seen in public for the first time and flies the flag for the same Weld/Khalid Abdullah combination in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden, although this is a more competitive affair, with the likes of O'Brien's Sloane Street and the John Oxx-trained Taracena in opposition.
The latter's stable companion Kastania flopped when fancied at Leopardstown last month and will appreciate the drop in trip for the Tadgh Clifford Groundcare Handicap.
Secretary Of State has been even more expensive to follow but steps into handicap company for the first time in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Nursery, with the David Wachman duo of Orchestra Leader and Money Spider chief among his rivals.
Easy Ballinrobe scorer Fairylike is just one of four last-start winners in the Robin Parke Memorial Handicap, while Secret Hero struck at Bellewstown last week but needs two to come out of the Tadgh Kelly Carpentry Handicap to make it off the reserves' bench.
