Verdict

Plenty of pace on here but still worth siding with LOVE OF NEYMORE who showed a likeable attitude when third in a C&D handicap that has worked out well. She can make her second start of the season a winning one, while Idefix De Ciergues can maintain his record of placing in handicap hurdles as this track. The form of Pyleigh Master's Ffos Las victory has been franked and he's open to improvement upped in trip on handicap debut, while Kayf Dancer could be worth another chance.
