Verdict: IRISH JUBALEE has to be the first name on the shortlist. He represents a trainer that gets plenty of first-time-out winners. Tricks R For Juba and Time To Get It are also respected.

1	Stone Cold Jones Jockey: Sunday Jr Diaz Trainer: Javier Contreras Age/Wt: 2/8-10	SP
Comment: Represents a stable with a strong record here with their newcomers; must be high on list as has looked an intriguing prospect during trackwork.
2	Tricks R For Juba Jockey: Denis Araujo Trainer: Ronald Sigler Age/Wt: 2/8-10	SP
Comment: Related to Juba's Hat Trick, winning form over 4½f-7f; has claims as looks to be doing the right things in his workouts.
3	Irish Jubalee Jockey: Arnaldo Bocachica Trainer: Anthony Farrior Age/Wt: 2/8-10	SP
Comment: Course debutants from this trainer always command respect; related to multiple race winner Ran Out Of Trainer (4½f-6½f); arguably the one to beat with signs of encouragement in profile and the stable is hot at the moment.
4	Time To Get It Jockey: Gustavo Larrosa Trainer: Kristy Petty Age/Wt: 2/8-10	SP
Comment: Related to multiple race winner Timetogetup (4½f-7f); workout history suggests fitness may not be an issue; hard to dismiss with signs of encouragement in profile and the hot form of the stable is a bonus.
5	Foolish Rabbit Jockey: Julio Jorge Trainer: Tonya O Neill Age/Wt: 2/8-10	SP
Comment: First public outing; sire gets speedy types; trainer has a modest record with debutants; would be a surprise to see this one figure.
6	They Not Like Us Jockey: John Hiraldo Trainer: Michael Jones Age/Wt: 2/8-10	SP
Comment: Trainer not renowned for sending out winning newcomers; sibling of Daisy Bee (1m winner); bred to get better as he gets older; market may be informative on his prospects.

Speakerit

Jockey: Victor Rodriguez Trainer: Willie Kee Age/Wt: 8/8-10 F: 6055

Comment: May have reached limits of his ability and hasn't won for a while; finished fifth, beaten a fair way over 5½f at Laurel Park (claimer) last month; now looks to be past his prime and others more likely.

Late Night Spirit

Jockey: Maximo Chilo Trainer: Osborne Smith Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 43/621

Comment: Improved form the last twice; landed a narrow success in a maiden claimer, breaking her duck at the seventh time of asking last month; warrants consideration as recent win points to her being able to handle class rise and latest speed figure suggests she can mix it with these despite the higher tag.

Long Legs Louise

Jockey: Victor Rodriguez Trainer: William Lewis Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 6/68-5

Comment: Problems at the start (sluggish) when beaten 12l (fifth of seven) last month in a claimer; a while since her last success; up in class (in for $15k here, $5k tag last time); hard to make a case for her.

Double Spirit

Comment: Creditable effort to finish runner-up when little between her and Elevated Power (fifth) three weeks ago in a maiden special weight; signs of improvement on last two runs and has been consistent of late; definitely of interest if building on promise shown last time.

Beautiful Town

Jockey: Christian Maldonado Trainer: Christopher Keller Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 6-7466

Comment: Finished sixth but wasn't beaten too far (8l) in a maiden special weight back down to this trip in May; still looking to open her account after six runs; this line-up contains some strong opposition so one to tread carefully with.
