      Verdict

      It could be a very successful day for the champion jockey as WHATDOESTHEFOXSAY looks the one to be on in this finale, though she's likely to be a very short price. She has already won a point-to-point and a bumper this year and this is a natural progression. It's a while since Intent or Sirrah Star showed any worthwhile form while Bus Named Desire beat only one home on her hurdling debut. The remaining trio make even less appeal.
