Formscan By Donal Murphy - Back in maiden company, SMEXY looks the one to beat. A respectable third of five in the Group 3 Silver Flash Stakes over the course and distance last month, she had two previous winners behind. There was just half-a-length between Josh's Joy and Venosa when they finished third and fourth on debut, and both are likely to step forward from that initial experience. Aidan O'Brien-trains the latter and is also represented by newcomer Bloom, with this well-bred bay a sister to recent Cork victor Two For Joy. Out of Group 1 winner Albigna, Thenandnow has two solid efforts to her name and warrants the utmost respect, while Naas fifth Struck By Her is another for the shortlist.
