Verdict
Simply Loveleh needs to forgiving a shocking effort at Uttoxeter last month having won there earlier. Nightfly weakened quickly at Warwick but should strip fitter here. Dame du Soir won over 2m on heavy going here last season and looked on course to add to that success over this trip at Ludlow in February before falling. She is likely to go close today with a clear round but OSCAR ROSE doesn’t know how to run a bad race. She is probably better treated over fences than hurdles at present and there is a chance that she’ll appreciate a first try on fast going.
