OFFIAH overcame greenness to make a promising start over the track and trip last month and Ger Lyons' colt can improve enough to take this. Let Me Pass had been going well in heavy ground maidens before a moderate handicap debut and makes his track debut as does My Minervina. The latter had run well in her first two starts then didn't get the best of runs in a lucrative auction race at Naas. Aurora Princess made an encouraging debut at Thurles and didn't enjoy the heavy conditions at Gowran next time while Isle Of Sark, a $100,000 yearling, is related to three winners in the USA and may prove best of Joseph O'Brien's trio.
