      Verdict

      Bells Express was second in a maiden point last April and has had wind surgery since but Ballygeary has the more recent form between the flags. Third at Newton Abbot last May, SHADY DAISY was in front when ducking left and crashing through the running rail at Stratford subsequently. She could make amends if steering a straight course today. Brawby, a half-brother to two winners on the Flat, looks the pick of the newcomers ahead of the more stoutly-bred Sneaky Pete.
