        Verdict

        ABERLADY was beaten a couple of lengths on her handicap debut but drops in class for her return to action and has more scope than most. Misu Moneypenny went close in a higher grade over track and trip a week ago and should confirm running with Summer Isles. Scott Dixon’s filly could go close but Jess has failed to show any progress having won at Lingfield back in January and Catterick winner Early Bird never figured on her recent return to action at Ripon.
