Verdict
Bessie Lou didn't beat much at Bellewstown in August and was well beaten in a handicap at Listowel on her latest start. The Irish raider has her work cut out here competing against HEATHER ROYAL off level weights. Nicky Henderson's mare beat another big field over C&D a fortnight ago on her hurdling debut and should be capable of defying her penalty, though the connections of third Elegant Touch may fancy their chances of turning the tables on 7lb better terms. Lady Kathleen was a promising second in a Uttoxeter bumper in May but could need the experience today.
