Verdict

Fran Berry brought Snakes And Ladders with a late burst to snatch victory at Naas in May and back on his favoured testing ground the son of Rock Of Gibraltar can get into the shake-up. Janna's Jingle has been running well enough but is still a maiden and this could be another for Tony Martin via WOODSOPHIESMILE. She hasn't had much racing and showed her first worthwhile form at Killarney last time, suggesting that a race of this nature was within her capabilities and her trainer's horses have been flying all week. New Regalia drops back massively in trip after running over 1m4f at Tipperary but was behind Snakes And Ladders at Naas. Campestral Scene ran well here on Monday and a repeat would see him go close.
