Verdict

LEGAL THRILLER needs to be forgiven a couple of lesser efforts since her reappearance but there was an excuse last time and she might be worth chancing in first-time blinkers. Clifftop has been knocking on the door this season and rates a threat under Shane Foley, while Joseph O'Brien's Amarantha could also have a say if recapturing the level of her penultimate Curragh third.
