Love Trophy Power²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Cameron Noble⁽³⁾| T: R Varian| OR: 75| BF

10/3

Thrice-raced maiden who failed to meet expectations when second of 7 in 6f novice event at Windsor (good to firm, 2/5) 22 days ago, possibly needing the run more than anticipated. Should be competitive.

Forecasts

Mount Athos (5/2), Love Trophy Power (10/3), Rich Rhythm (10/3), Conflict (9/2), The Cookstown Cafu (9/2), Good Measure (11/2), Glory And Honour (40/1), Floats On Air (50/1), Doctor Khan Junior (66/1), Combatantcommander (150/1)

MOUNT ATHOS was unable to keep tabs with the first 3 once they quickened up at Doncaster last time, but he wasn't knocked about and still appeals as the type to do better, so could be the way to go. Love Trophy Power failed to meet expectations on her reappearance at Windsor, though possibly needed the run more than the market anticipated, while Rich Rhythm is another to consider in what looks a novice with some depth.
