BRIERY BUTTERFLY signed off last term with a very good fourth over C&D and with that form having been franked she is taken to make a winning return off the same mark here. Evan Williams has his string in good nick so his Bossofthebus could emerge as the main danger to Henry Daly's mare, ahead of in-form pair Olivia Kate and Matchadam.
