Verdict

Luv U Whatever had been rattling-up the wins at Southwell but found one too good over course and distance a fortnight ago. He still finished ahead of Noble Gift and Kings Bayonet last time but may struggle to get the better of DREAM CHILD. The Godolphin filly went within a short-head of recording a four-timer at the track when runner-up here on Monday and can make amends in this. Both the Irish raider Cullentry Royal and Bute Hall look to have tough tasks in this grade.
