In depth
Verdict
This is no better than the first division and the vote on this occasion goes to LOVE NEST. He finished a close-up second over C&D in June and John Dunlop's charge has some scope for improvement. C&D winner Litotes is 3lb higher today but has been beaten out of sight in a couple of runs since, while Monashee Rock is still struggling for form despite slipping down the weights. Qaraqum and My Flame could prove best of the remainder.
