Verdict
Lady Tess looked a bright prospect back in 2009 and though a long-term absentee her trainer can bring one back in top form. Nodelay has now had 10 starts over timber without winning but she's gone close on several occasions and likes this track. Miss Nomer ran in a much better event at Galway and wasn't disgraced. Her earlier run behind Black Rock Lake at Kilbeggan will make her difficult to beat and she looks the main threat to SOME FIDDLE, who was having only her third career start when landing a Ballinrobe bumper and her previous run behind Donatis Comet has been boosted by the winner's subsequent exploits.
