Verdict
Eire Street has switched stables since second at Sligo in July and LETTERSTON LADY is fancied to shrug off a penalty she picked up for easily landing the odds at Worcester, though Charming Berry can improve on his second at Huntingdon in May. Always Busy, the first foal to race of a winning hurdler in Ireland, looks best of the two debutants but will probably need further in time.
