Verdict
Let Me Pass took a step forward at Cork after a modest debut at the Curragh but KAURI CLIFFS can make in third-time lucky. Joseph O’Brien’s Gleneagles colt never threatened over this trip at Bellewstown after his third at Galway but is still learning his job and this is a not a particularly strong race. Optimistic Belief is a half-brother to a 7f winner and looks the pick of the three newcomers.
