LUV U NOO appreciates soft going and with Brian Ellison's stable in fair enough form, there has to be plenty of positives for the local runner. Clumber Place might not have the most pleasing of attitudes as a noted tale swisher but few could crab two victories on the spin. Salerosa is in winning form having obliged at Musselburgh though conditions appear to be far from ideal for a follow up. Uddy Mac has placed in a couple of weak handicaps and should not be too far away again. Midnight Fantasy did encounter soft ground as a juvenile and while this is no easy task under top weight, she is better equipped to deal with the ground than most. A similar story applies to Peter's Gift.
