Fergal O'Brien is represented by No No Juliet and The Toojumpa, both of whom joined the stable from other yards. The latter is chosen with assured fitness to call upon, having scored a month ago on stable bow. More is required off a 5lb higher mark and in a better race though and MASSINI'S DREAM is preferred. He was behind The Toojumpa last time but things didn't really go his way and he's better off at the weights now. He's worth another chance, especially as his previous run reads really well when inched out at Bangor. Chloe's Court is interesting on fencing debut and the best form of Cushuish, who can give trouble at the start, brings him into the mix.
