Bye Bye Baby has had both of her runs at the Curragh, the latest in a Group 3, so she's taking a drop in class. Low numbers are best on ground with some give and EPANEEMA could hardly be better drawn in stall two. Jim Bolger's filly was a 20/1 chance on her debut on soft ground at Tipperary but belied the odds with a narrow defeat by Sizzling and can go one better. Modern Love stayed on well behind Chiara Luna over 6f here last month and the winner looks useful while Rionach ran well on faster ground than she would have liked here last time. Dermot Weld has a good record in this and Clique, who is related to several smart winners, has been ready to roll for some time while Joseph O'Brien's Galileo filly Julienne is related to eight winners.
