Verdict

TEST OF LOVE displayed definite signs of promise without looking anything like the finished article in a trio of starts as a juvenile and, gelded ahead of this return, he's just the type to take off now handicapping for his very shrewd stable. Desert Raider and Blufferonthebus are others to consider, whilst Coin Power is another handicap debutant to keep an eye on.
