      Verdict

      Notawordofalie wasn’t disgraced when third at Worcester three weeks ago and will strip fitter today. She’s preferred to July’s Killarney runner-up Cast In Grey, having a first run for new connections, but ELLE EST GRANDE could be a tough nut to crack. A half-sister to four winning jumpers, she led for a long way between the flags at Ballyragget in March and changed hands for £40,000 shortly after
