Love Trophy Power was unable to defy a winners penalty at Ascot and it will be no mean feat if she can give weight and a beating to this afternoon’s rivals. Second Collection was strongly fancied at Haydock on her most recent outing but was to give an unusually recalcitrant display so with that in mind RHUBARB appears to be the percentage call. Richard Price’s mare has graduated from a plater’s mark with three victories at Chepstow and looks to have plenty going for her in this affair.
