Keith Reveley's point-to-point winner Truckers Lady has to be respected back over the regulation fences but this may go to one of the two Nicky Richards runners in the race, with the vote going to Scarvagh Diamond over Westgrove Berry. The selection is proven with plenty of cut in the ground and showed improved form over fences when landing a similar contest at Ayr last month. A reproduction of that effort may well suffice. Don McCain's Mrs O'Malley needs to improve on all known form to trouble the judge, while Nasrha is less exposed than his rivals but is hard to recommend from what we have seen from him so far. Westgrove Berry should be all the better for her recent reappearance and she has to be respected but preference is for stablemate Scarvagh Diamond.
