Verdict

MINAUN VIEW ran her best race to finish runner-up in a C&D claimer and did well to split a pair of subsequent winners when fourth in a 1m maiden here last time. She makes appeal, especially if supported, while Notforalongtime is a more reliable proposition at Dundalk than elsewhere and looks a danger along with in-form Una Matata who has her first start in a claimer for current connections. Tortola is one of the least exposed and she's another to note in an open-looking race.
