Verdict
Milton Road is the one with winning form in the book but both successes arrived in selling company and this is harder. That said, THE LOVE DOCTOR has been beaten in a seller but that came in a valuable event at York, since when he's posted a solid second in a Pontefract nursery, form which just about sets the standard. Porchy Party and Gangland have both been in decent form on recent starts and look live contenders with the former nominated as the chief threat as he's looked gradually progressive in his three starts and Callum Shepherd's claim will prove beneficial. There was a major jolt of improvement from Shania Says on her third start when filling the minor placing behind Encrypted at Kempton, form that certainly warrants shortlist inclusion here with the promise of more to come.
