Verdict

Dry Ol'party has been looking a little one-paced but she is only rated 6lb lower than Welcometothejungle and gets 7lb here with the latter penalised for winning over 2m4f at Uttoxeter last month. The Hobbs' filly could come out best, though there should be little between the pair at the finish. NORTHERN MEETING certainly isn't out of this on her first start over timber since April as she's been in action on the Flat and she can upset the likely market principals. Native Princess won a Southwell bumper in June and Toptempo has won twice on the Flat but has lost her way this year.
