Chased home Star Prospect at the Curragh (soft) in April but made odds-on backers sweat when just coming out the right side of a three-horse photo at Naas (also 5f, good) three weeks later; up to 6f when good second to Great Barrier Reef in Curragh Group 3 last time and that form looks all the better after his conqueror won the Coventry on Tuesday; drop back to this stiff 5f is unlikely to be an issue and he commands great respect from a stable that's won this four times, including last year.

Made a pleasing debut when runner-up here over 5f (soft); didn't win as easily as the market suggested at Naas last time (30-100), getting up late to beat an 80-1 chance by a head; the step up to 6f will suit, but Great Barrier Reef is the more attractive of the trainer's two.

Pleasing effort on debut at the Curragh (5f, soft), beaten 1.25l into second and the third has since run well in Listed company; pedigree suggests improvement will be forthcoming on quicker ground; leading chance for top yard.

No Nay Never colt; 250,000euros yearling; half-brother to winners Raafedd (7f; RPR 100), Secret Hideaway (5f 2yo Listed; 88) and Elsals (7f; 87); dam Listed-placed 5f 2yo winner (90), half-sister to 1m2f winner Aunt Bee, out of 7f 2yo Group 3 winner; interesting on paper and should be competitive on debut.
