Verdict

Lady Lupus won a Listed contest in her first campaign but has disappointed this season and her young rider is unable to use his claim. Johnny Murtagh deserts her for Unity, who produced some nice efforts in decent company before landing a Fairyhouse maiden on her first start at this trip. Indiana Gal is unproven over the trip but GRACE O'MALLEY is ideally suited and last year's Irish Oaks fourth should have come on enough from her two starts this season to gain the third success of her career. She's Our Mark has had 40 career starts with seven victories to her credit but has never raced at this trip and was behind Grace O'Malley at Naas last time.
