Verdict

KMIL DU SEUIL was thrown in at the deep end on her hurdles debut at Fairyhouse at Easter and is surely capable of better now returning in an ordinary maiden. She could have too many guns for standard-setter Torps. Justatan should improve, while Sound As A Bell would be interesting if getting a run.
