Verdict
Elusive Love has started favourite on his last two starts but has been beaten out of sight and the jury's out on him for now. As a consequence, this looks a good opportunity for HOOVER. He finished a close-up third behind Chimpunk on his racecourse debut over C&D last week and will need only nominal improvement to open his account in this company. Secret Tycoon returns from a lay-off but has a decent effort at Goodwood to his credit, while the Chineur filly Fleurie Lover is worth noting on her debut. The remaining pair are hard to fancy.
