Verdict
Hype ran in a very strong Naas maiden in June and didn't reappear until last month when just failing to catch Fight Zone with subsequent winner Preamble behind. STARDAYZ made a very promising debut in a maiden that has worked out well here and looks certain to make enough progress to get into contention so gets the nod. Zola Sakura is another to catch the eye at Naas last month while Jeroboam will improve for his run at Cork. Seamie Heffernan prefers the latter to Blue Planet, a 1.8m gns son of Kingman out of an Australian Group 3 winner.
