Verdict

A decidedly ordinary maiden with JUSTICIAR taken to get off the mark on the back of a good showing at Naas. The return to 7f will suit Otsana and she's a big danger. Newcomer Allez Magh Glas is from a family that has done well at Dundalk and she could play a part first time up.

8	Ran well back from 4 months off when 5 lengths second in 7f Naas maiden. Good claims if backing that up on first go on all-weather. 1st Pick 8 Justiciar (Ire) Jockey: J. Kearney Trainer: G. M. Lyons, Ireland J: J. Kearney T: G. M. Lyons, Ireland	100	-	-	-	29%	5/2

9	From a good family and ran well fitted with a tongue strap on her first start here when third in 6f maiden 3 weeks ago. The return to 7f will suit and she should be bang there. 2nd Pick 9 Otsana (Ire) Jockey: Siobhan Rutledge Trainer: P. Twomey, Ireland J: Siobhan Rutledge T: P. Twomey, Ireland	85	-	-	-	24%	10/3

5	Calyx filly. Half-sister to smart 7f winner Soldier's Tree for stable (third here on debut then won a C&D maiden). Yard knows this family well (dam won 4 times at this track). Wouldn't dismiss first time up. 3rd Pick 5 Allez Magh Glas (Ire) Jockey: Orla Tynan Trainer: M. J. Tynan, Ireland J: Orla Tynan T: M. J. Tynan, Ireland	0	-	-	-	6%	16/1
