Many of these two-year-olds step out for the first time so a strong pace is anticipated. Plenty of first starters so some guesswork involved. Pierro debutante AVENUE MONTAIGNE (2) looks the goods for Waterhouse/Bott following a couple of nice trials, the latest a second on 29 May at Rosehill. Might lead from gate one and will take some running down. STRAIGHT SETS (6) is a half-sister to the handy Fire Star making her debut. Has won both trials impressively and looks ready to make an immediate impact. $3 million yearling purchase ERNAUX (1) has a fair way to go to recoup the expense. Resumed with an eye-catching second in a 1100m Warwick Farm maiden last start. Will enjoy the extra trip here and should be tough to hold out. Gai and Adrian's KAKADU SUNSET (4) steps out for the first time. By Extreme Choice from a Sebring mare. The latest trial was encouraging so keep close tabs on her. YATTAZOU (8) went a lot better at her most recent trial and cannot be ignored on debut for the Waller stable. SUGGESTED PLAY: Avenue Montaigne on top but the betting will tell the tale.
