No Nay Never colt a 90,000euros yearling and brother to 2yo 6f Listed winner Servalan; easy to back when making winning debut in Naas maiden over this trip last month, coming from fair bit back on favoured stands' side under considerate enough ride; big step up in grade here but likely more to offer. |

9st 0lb |
Best two efforts in four maiden runs came over 7f at Dundalk last winter; not a bad run on handicap bow and seasonal return at Limerick (7f, soft) behind Zenford and Venetian Star; same mark here and Keane takes over now; ran well on good ground at the Curragh last term; interesting. |

E260,000 yearling; fifth foal, half-brother to three winners; made a pleasing debut as the stable outsider when fourth of 17 over 6f at Naas; looked in need of further when fifth (fourth in group) in a 28-runner Curragh maiden won by subsequent Ascot big-race winner Mission Central; second, third and fourth have all won. |

Both wins have come on the AW, including over 6f on penultimate; ran on well for a 1l third of 16 off this mark at Naas on latest (5f, good); step back up to 6f a big positive; this a tougher race but looks progressive and leading claims. |
