This has the look of a useful 4-y-o maiden, with FOXY GIRL taken to strike. She made a very pleasing start for Henry de Bromhead back from 20 months off at Thurles and is a good prospect. Royal Moon offered plenty at Clonmel and will improve. Doctor Brown Bear was last seen in the Fred Winter, pulling far too hard, and has shown more than enough to win a maiden. He's Ultimate is a fascinating newcomer, while all 3 reserves are interesting.
