Verdict

SILVER LARK couldn't quite get to West End Victory at Thurles but is certain to have come on for the run and can go one better. Her stablemate Charity Barnum was in touch and going well enough when falling three out in a Navan maiden hurdle. Cuta Des As, a half-sister to five winning jumpers, has joined Willie Mullins after winning a point at Farmacaffley just over a year ago and Im Here Now is a half-sister to four winning bumpers so should be noted in the market.
