The 84-rated PASSING PHASE has been consistent and looks capable of winning a maiden of this standard. He may be tested by the Ger Lyons-trained newcomer Lil' Angel. Bobbi Rosa failed to do herself justice on her seasonal debut and may reverse form with Viamonte. [Alan Sweetman]

4yo earned a rating of 67 after three runs on the AW at Dundalk; best effort 3/4l third over this trip in February; now rated 74 after a respectable effort when third at 66-1 in a nine-runner maiden at Cork on his turf debut; finished in front of Mini Mai, Bobby Rosa (who had a possible excuse) and Morally Sound.
Hello Youmzain colt cost 50,000euros as a yearling; fifth foal; half-brother to three winners at 1m and upwards; dam an unraced half-sister to a 5.5f 2yo Group 3 winner; tongue tied for debut, may need further than this.
No Nay Never colt cost 150,000gns as a foal and 200,000euros as a yearling; blinkered now after failing to make an impact on debut at Cork; 9-2 chance, likely to be capable of better.
Decent form in maidens at 5f-6f on varying ground last season, including second to the useful Sir Yoshi over C&D; pleasing reappearance third in a 6f Curragh maiden, shaping like the drop back to this trip would suit; form of the race was boosted when runner-up Mathan won a 17-runner 7f Curragh maiden; leading chance.
Experienced sort has run well in defeat; placed on three AW starts and second at Bellewstown and Cork last August; harmed her chance by diving left out of the stalls at Cork on reappearance; needs to reverse form with Viamonte and Mini Mai.
Dark Angel filly; unsold for GBP40,000 as a 2yo; dam Group-placed 6f 2yo winner, closely related to 2yo sprint winner Miss Rosina; plenty of speed in the pedigree and Colin Keane prefers her to the one-raced Mini Mai.
