Verdict
Seven of these are course and distance winners and Palifico lost her maiden tag over 5f here earlier this month. El Hombre is a three-times track winner though has taken 25 runs to reach that total. He was receiving 1lb when beating Porfin a head a couple of weeks ago and they meet off levels here. Four-times Turf winner Holbache gained his first all-weather victory at Kempton last time but hasn't performed so well on Tapeta so the vote goes to ELECTRIC LOVE, a dual Turf winner who has finished second in her three starts here
