Honourable Love has been given a patient build up this season and can add to her tally if all goes to plan for her today. Dar Es Salaam and Vicious Warrior are dangerous contenders to rule out, while Tarkheena Prince drops to his most appropriate trip and adds another dimension for punters to consider exploring. The last named does face a stiff test for a three-year-old against her elders, though. Vicious Warrior is consistent and can be relied upon to live up to his name. He will battle to line and can sure this is a good test. Dar Es Salaam is also suited by a strongly run 10 furlongs and, having made the frame in three of his last four starts, there is a solid case to be made for him finishing in the money once more. However, Honourable Love has a good record when returning after a break and, as she comes here much fresher than her rivals; the Michael Dodds-trained filly can exploited the situation if there are signs of jadedness amongst the rest today.
