Verdict
Loves Destination showed a glimmer of ability here earlier in the month. Up Four It was third at Plumpton last month and Hassadin, Old Magic and Asker were also placed last time. But Gary Moore rarely leaves here empty-handed and TORERO can send the locals home happy under 8lb claimer George Gorman after finally opening his account at Plumpton a little under two weeks ago.
