Verdict
This is an above-average fillies' maiden and Ahimsa, though progressing with experience, could struggle to get off the mark against rivals who arguably have better form in the book, though she does have the beating of Silver Sycamore on recent C&D running. Criostal will find this easier than when taking on Maybe and company in the Moyglare Stud Stakes, but there should be more to come from OH SO LUCY who finished ahead of Redoubtable on her debut at the Curragh. The latter is better off at the weights today but Ger Lyon's filly was given a very gentle introduction and has more scope.
