Verdict
Au Lait's best run was over 7f on soft ground at Gowran while Green Valentine was a 150/1 chance when last of 18 at Navan. DO SI DO, who was bought for 120,000gns at the Craven Breeze-up, lost her chance at the start at Naas and can make amends. Ebanza is a half-sister to a winning hurdler but Mags is related to a couple of winning sprinters, though Vierson could provide the main threat as she's out of a mare who has produced winning two-year-olds with her first two offspring.
