        Verdict

        There is still no stopping Fergal O’Brien and SHE’S A NOVELTY beat Ginger Du Val and Roque Angel easily enough at Bangor last month. She carries a penalty here but that is reduced by Liam Harrison’s claim and a follow-up looks likely. Amelia's Dance would have a chance on the pick of her form but she hasn’t raced since March and Little Jessture has struggled on the Flat since running in bumpers here last summer.
