NO NAY ALWAYS hails from a very fast family, being out of a half-sister to the Group 3 winners Lesson In Humility and Poet's Vanity, and this 360,000-euro purchase makes the most appeal in an interesting contest. A New Dawn is a stablemate of the selection and is another to note, while Love Bracelet, Tango and Precious Moments merit respect for Aidan O'Brien. Others to consider are Albigna, Royal Affair and Switzer.
Prediction : 1st No Nay Always 2nd A New Dawn 3rd Love Bracelet

King Neptune sets the standard having occupied the runner-up berth at this level here a few weeks ago, and he may improve for the step up in trip. That said, preference is for SISKIN, who looks to have a very bright future based on his impressive debut victory. The son of First Defence is related to some high-class performers and can earn a ticket to Royal Ascot by winning this contest. Harpocrates chased him home at Naas and could make the frame once again.
Prediction : 1st Siskin 2nd King Neptune 3rd Harpocrates

FIRE FLY landed a Tipperary maiden last summer and if she can build on her Group 3 fifth at Leopardstown, she will take plenty of beating off a mark of 94 on her handicap bow. Viadera was placed in the Anglesey here last term and is completely unexposed over a mile, while Lady Wannabe, winner of a Cork maiden last month, commands the utmost respect given she's one of the few in the field with proven stamina for the distance.
Prediction : 1st Fire Fly 2nd Viadera 3rd Lady Wannabe

JASSAAR opened his account in fine style at Limerick last month and could strike again on his handicap debut for his in-form handler. The son of Dansili hails from a good family and is open to greater improvement than Kimifive, who continues to go the right way and was only beaten four lengths in the Victoria Cup at Ascot. Verhoyen, who won a 30-runner event here on his penultimate outing, is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Jassaar 2nd Kimifive 3rd Verhoyen

Bold Approach returns from a 302-day absence and was last seen chasing home Anthony Van Dyck in a Group 3 at Leopardstown over 7f. The son of Dawn Approach is entitled to have benefited from that experience and could improve stepping up in distance. Constantinople and Buckhurst are also open to further progression, but the vote goes to TINANDALI. Dermot Weld's colt scored in good style at Leopardstown last month and is expected to take the step forward required at this level.
Prediction : 1st Tinandali 2nd Bold Approach 3rd Constantinople

Gee Rex has kept good company and shaped nicely on his reappearance at Naas, while Rita Levi is another who was promising at two and should be suited by a return to sprinting. However, preference is for ROYAL COURT, who arrives match-fit and in good form having rattled the crossbar on his latest efforts, with the application of blinkers maybe the key to unlocking a first victory. Super Treat finished alongside the selection last time and is also respected.
Prediction : 1st Royal Court 2nd Gee Rex 3rd Super Treat

TREBLE CONE got the better of Passing Trade when the pair met at Leopardstown last Friday and he is expected to uphold that form, despite being 3lb worse off. Encantador will appreciate the step back up in distance, having found the extended 6f at Limerick on the short side, while others to consider in a competitive event include Latchet and Mulzamm.
Prediction : 1st Treble Cone 2nd Passing Trade 3rd Encantador
