LOVE YOUR WORK (NAP) is rated 77 on the all-weather after seven victories but was gaining his first success on Turf when scoring from a 13lb lower mark with something in hand at Beverley on Thursday. A 5lb penalty doesn't look enough to prevent a quick double. Spantik won over 1m6f at Redcar in September and though he's won over the trip it looks on the short side these days. Quoteline Direct is a three-times winner around here and has been going well on the all-weather while both Bookmark and Carrigillihy scored on their only visits to the track with the former winning a maiden handicap by an incredible 17l on fast ground in September. Neither of the remaining pair can be dismissed.
