Verdict

There were definite signs of encouragement to glean from A GIFT OF LOVE's exploits in maiden/novice events late on last year and, very much the type to improve further as she gains experience, Charlie Fellowes' well-bred filly is expected to go well now handicapping equipped with a first-time hood. Enochdhu, with a reappearance run under his belt, is respected back on turf along with Clansman. Real Terms can also get in the mix.

  1. A GIFT OF LOVE
  2. ENOCHDHU (FR)
  3. CLANSMAN
