Verdict
Winning point-to-pointer APRILS JOY is well clear of her rivals on official ratings and a run on the Flat a couple of weeks ago will have put her straight. Champagne Diva showed potential in bumpers though didn't make much of a start over hurdles at Fairyhouse in January. Little Lady Lu has had six starts over timber without reaching a place but wasn't beaten far at Tramore in August and should get into the frame. Abbi Shore has changed stables and Rachael Blackmore picks her over stable companion The Three Wizards.
