Verdict

OOH BETTY had a bit up her sleeve when seeing off Manimole at Ludlow earlier this month and, with further improvement a distinct possibility for Ben Clarke's mare, she's fancied to confirm those placings once again. Blue Clover is sure to have derived plenty from her runner-up effort on hurdling debut so she can fight out third spot with Our Friend Mo.

  1. OOH BETTY (IRE)
