In depth
Verdict
Able Native has held numerous entries over the last week so has obviously given the indication at home that she is ready to go. She confirmed her well being with a comfortable success at Hexham on Saturday, and will be hard to beat with conditions in her favour; despite being set to carry 7lb extra after her latest win. Bergamo is a frustrating horse to follow so Jupont Vert is taken as best of the rest, although support for Mill Emerald will also be interesting.
