Verdict

Rated 77, COSMIC LOVE looks to have every chance back down in trip as she returns to novice company. She’s been thereabouts over 1m2f in maiden races recently and this looks less competitive. Motajaasid was expected to finish closer at Kempton last time having made a promising debut. He may do better over this longer trip while Rippling Waters went close over 7f at Lingfield recently and has a shout on that form. Doctor Wonderful is preferred to stablemate Radar Days of the remainder.
