It will be a huge disappointment to connections that CHICAGO GIRL is still a maiden as she was running from a mark in the 100's after her close second to My Titania in a Curragh Group 3 last September and was only just beaten in a Listed contest. She's really fallen from grace and makes her debut on the surface but this half-sister to seven winners needs a victory for the paddocks and this should be it. Tirghra has now had 13 races without winning but has gone close on several occasions and in this moderate event should manage a place again. Her stablemate Sar Oiche hasn't had as much experience and has shown good pace over longer trips so she could be the one to chase home the selection. Emiest Rose has only had four runs and is gradually improving but may need a handicap to get off the mark.
