No Nay Never colt is a brother to Group 1 winner Blackbeard; built on the promise of his Curragh debut (5f, good) when making all in a 6f Navan maiden (soft) in very impressive fashion; the drop back to 5f should pose no problems here and a 3lb penalty may not stop him from following up en-route to a trip to Royal Ascot.
