Verdict

THE LAST INDIAN is shaping in to a promising and progressive handicap hurdler winning not out of turn in a Tipperary contest on Thursday, quick track return with the 6lb may not be enough to stop the five-year-old mare. Guido Reni is raised 6lb for his win at Tipperary last week and another bold show looks likely with conditions to suit, while the Joseph O'Brien-trained Edna in the colours of J P McManus can grab a place following a solid appearance at Clonmel recently.
