Verdict

GAIRE OS ARD, runner-up over 5f on her debut here, attempted to make all over 7f at Leopardstown 10 days ago and wasn't headed until inside the final furlong. She'll take some catching with her allowance, especially as Thunder Eclipse was very disappointing at Fairyhouse after showing enough quality to suggest an ordinary maiden should have resulted in a much better effort. Doitforandrew had some fair form on testing ground early in the campaign so more rain would aid his cause while Thismydream has been running a bit better than form figures imply.
