      Verdict

      LOVE TALE bids for a hat-trick having won over C&D before beating the re-opposing Ashpan Sam a couple of lengths at Salisbury last time. She's up another 6lb but Mark Rimell's filly is still fancied to get the better of Ascot maiden winner Show Flower, who can race off the same mark on her handicap debut. Poseidon Grey and Right Regal both went backwards last season after promising debuts and the latter showed no improvement on his recent reappearance at Kempton.
