Verdict
Love Delta won over 5f here last week and looks sure to make another bold bid returning to this trip despite his penalty. He had finished third to Cape Vale over 6f here before that when IMPRIMIS TAGULA took the runners-up spot. Alan Bailey's charge is a multiple winner at this track including over this distance and, now back on a winning mark, he gets the vote. Ingleby Arch and Nightjar were further behind in the Cape Vale race but the former has yet to win over today's distance and the latter is hard to win with these days.
