Lovey Dovey has been on good form but it's hard to win a bumper under a penalty so instead we side with the progressive MILANO SUPREMO with Golden View also looking a danger. Despite hanging badly last time the pick still improved from his debut run to find just the one too good .This track is likely to suit and he should do better on his UK debut for new connections. Lovey Dovey improved on his wining point form to score in a bumper last time. The form from that race looks pretty strong so while he should go well his penalty remains an issue. Golden View is another progressive sort having run well when switched to this code on his latest start. Previously he'd run well between the flags and he looks the type who will improve with experience. Jingoism was an eye-catching finisher on debut and is likely to improve but this bumper should go to Milano Supremo.
