Summer Of Love is taken to build on a promising debut to open her account at the expense of Royal Tender, Urban Warrior and Baldovina to name but a few. Alan King is always a trainer to follow when he sends juveniles out over jumps, and on the strength of a promising third to the more experienced Mud Monkey on her timber bow at Hereford last month, Summer Of Love is fancied to find the improvement required to open her account. The ability is there, she just needs to brush up her jumping. Royal Tender failed to impress on her last visit here, but Mud Monkey's trainer Brendan Powell will at least have a form-line to work on, and she should be a leading player. Urban Warrior is going the right way, and lost nothing in defeat against the useful Evan Williams inmate Hypnotic Vibes, while Baldovina is out to get the losses back after her defeat at Market Rasen where she seemed to run out of steam. All in all, we prefer the claims of Summer Of Love.
