Verdict

Plenty are in with a shout. LATIN LOVER's form is on an upward curve and he looks weighted to go close turned out under a penalty for his taking Kempton victory. Loves Me Likearock is another with better days still ahead of her and is next on the list, while York scorer Korker, Irish challenger Ladies Church and Chester second Nymphadora all figure on the shortlist.
