Suspension and Ivy Port have both found Luv U Whatever too good over a mile at this track recently. They're hard to separate on collateral form and it would be no surprise if either pops up in this. However, a chance is taken that MOE'S PLACE will show further improvement stepping up a furlong after a narrow-margin defeat over 6f here a fortnight ago and Kevin Ryan's charge is just preferred. Gebayl disappointed back in maiden company last time having gone close over track and trip earlier while Gold Roll and Hit The Lights are harder to fancy making their Fibresand and seasonal debuts today.
