Verdict
Putin and Jackie Love are similar types. Both carry penalties for recent victories and are closely matched on earlier form. It's anybody's guess which one of that pair will come out best today so a punt is taken on COMPTON TARGET instead. He finished runner-up at Wolverhampton last week on his first start since September and it's reasonable to expect some improvement with that run under his belt. Greek Islands has slid down the handicap and showed a bit more than Northern Spy and Vale of Lingfield on his latest outing.
