      Verdict

      OCEAN OF LOVE defied a hike in the weights to win over track and trip last time. She’s upped in class off a higher mark today but the Godolphin filly still beat Isaac Bell easily enough despite being eased down in the closing stages. Key Bid also represents Godolphin but hasn’t raced since August while Azam finished well ahead of Bear Valley when scoring over 2m here last month and is upped 7lb. St Mary's and Velvet Revolution also drop back down in distance while Snowy Winter and Luv U Whatever are upped in trip on the back of placed efforts over 1m4f.
