    Verdict

    If Just Lille takes his chance he will be hard to beat, but we will just side with Jellytot, with Noble Nova the pick of the others. Kevin Ryan's filly showed tremendous courage to get the better of Kasumi at Carlisle earlier this month, with the good yardstick Esoterica well beaten off in third. The handicapper hasn't been too harsh and she can make it three wins from four outings. Just Lille took a while to get into top gear at Haydock on Saturday night, but stayed on well to beat a modest field. There could be plenty more to come from Ann Duffield's filly and she rates a major threat. Noble Nova was far from disgraced, when attempting a fourth quick win off the reel in Scotland. She finished third behind Defi in that Hamilton event and although she has risen in the weights she still warrants plenty of respect. Wind Star has been knocking on the door recently and looks the pick of the rest, but Jellytot just does enough to win and may still be just ahead of the handicapper.
