There was a lot to like about how LOVE ENVOI went about things at Lingfield last month and she's fancied to carry on progressing now back up in trip, so makes plenty of appeal. Nina The Terrier remains one to be positive about having looked unlucky not win at Haydock last time, while Speech Bubble won with something in hand at Newbury and is totally unexposed.
