Therewillbeglory gets her head in front at Naas The ultra-consistent Therewillbeglory (5/6 F) , who has finished second in eight of her twelve runs on the track, finally got off the mark with a good performance in the WTW Willis Fillies Maiden. The daughter of Cotai Glory had a wide draw to deal with but managed to sit second throughout the contest, with the Ger Lyons-trained Justiciar joining her throughout the contest. Up the straight, she breezed into the lead and ran out a five-length winner. Speaking after the contest, trainer Andy Slattery said, "She was frustrating, to say the least. She's a very good work horse. I thought she'd have won by now. She works toe to toe with Loughrea at home. She just never produced it on the track; she was second more times. I brought her to the beach, I thought she was a lay-down certainty. She actually bled the same day and had never bled in her life. I said when she didn't win that day, she'd never win. The beach seems to have been after sweetening her up a bit. It's great to win with her. She has been second in eight out of twelve runs." (Quotes from John O'Riordan)
