        Verdict

        STRANDFIELD LADY has been beaten just once in her last four starts - when tackling 1m4f at Galway. Her three victories have all been on the C&D under Daryl Byrne and a 5lbs penalty for last week's success doesn't appear enough to prevent another victory. Belle Noverre is another in good heart though her two recent victories have been in claimers and this looks tougher. Endless Expanse showed promise in her first campaign and returned to score over a mile at Dundalk in April. Sent off favourite for a 7f handicap at Gowran a month later she disappointed but this trip may be what is required and she looks the main threat.
