Verdict

TARLA will be at very short odds to redeem her reputation after falling at the last at Cork. Willie Mullins' mare had just taken the lead but keeled over on landing despite jumping clear and her earlier exploits, both here and in France, put her in a different league. Cnoc Seoda was her nearest challenger at Cork but she also fell at the last and Our Girl Lucy went on to finish runner-up though she's been beaten since. Charlie's Vic progressed nicely over hurdles and made a very pleasing start over fences at Naas earlier this month but Avondhu Lady is held by the selection on their run at Clonmel in November.
