Verdict
Shane Fitzgerald has twice been on board when Miss Us O has been narrowly beaten and is a positive booking here. STRONG ROOTS (NAP) led and went clear over an extended 2m3f at Clonmel last week but was reeled in at the last. She hasn't had much racing for her age and can finally lose her maiden tag. Lily Light Foot is also a maiden but her second to Building Bridges over 2m6f here could get a boost from the winner in the previous race. Tick Along ran a couple of good races last summer but has been beaten three times off a lower mark than this.
