Verdict

The vote goes to AODHAN MAY, who bettered anything she has previously achieved by some way when going close in a first-time tongue strap at Down Royal in January. A 3 lb rise for that near miss is fair enough and she is taken to confirm the placings with Finnians Row, who finished a respectable fifth in the same race. Added Bonus made it third time lucky over fences at Thurles last month and is best of the rest.
