First-time cheekpieces saw LORD OF LOVE (9) get off the mark tackling a 1m2f maiden at Salisbury and with further progress likely following that confidence-boosting success can make a winning handicap debut up in trip. ANDALEEP (1) battled on well landing a 1m2f handicap at Windsor last time. Could remain competitive off this revised mark. Ryan Moore-ridden handicap debutant CIRO DI MARZIO (8) cannot be ignored after shaping as though the step-up to 1m4f would suit when fourth under a penalty attempting a novice event here. Bidding for a hat-trick WONDER KID (11) completes the shortlist following wins at Newbury and at this venue.
