LAW GIRL, a winner on the Flat in France, scored over hurdles for Willie Mullins last summer and though well beaten subsequently must have a chance of returning with a victory in receipt of 10lb from Brazos and Constancio. The former, an impressive winner at Listowel in September, looked in need of the run at Roscommon last week and should be ready for this while Jim Bolger's charge made a sparkling return to action at Navan last month, staying on very strongly over that 1m4f and is certain to be suited by the extra. The Last Marju was in decent form over timber last summer and may prove best of the remainder.
