In depth

Verdict

A very weak maiden could be a good starting point for Thomas Mullins’ four-year-old Judex Lefou, who is making his debut over timber but has been hinting at ability in bumpers. But he does have ground to make up on Paranoid, who also has decent claims. MOYODE LADY has not been pulling up any trees but she has a 7lb claimer on board and could go close if jumping a little better than she did when last seen at Kilbeggan in May.
