Verdict

LOVE DESTINY failed to get involved in a valuable sales race at York last time having made a winning start over today’s trip at Chepstow. He’ll be more at home at his level and Mark Johnston’s colt gets another chance despite the penalty. Miss Thoughtful is also penalised for scoring over 6f at Lingfield while Mitty's Smile has struggled since winning at Windsor in July and headgear is fitted for the first time. Silver Samurai looks a bigger threat on a debut third at Wolverhampton and may prove best of the rest.
