In depth

Verdict

Love And Be Loved beat Whatalove and the frustrating Topmeup over course and distance at the start of the month but is worse off with both placed horses today and has been beaten since at Salisbury. Zilza has been quite consistent on the all-weather but makes her debut on Turf. Richard Hannon runs two but Royal Peace weakened quickly after making the running last time and could set up the race for stablemate OPENING TIME, who finished strongly when reverting to 7f last time at Salisbury and should have the pace for this. Chicago Star is another option dropping down a grade.
