World Without Love beat Golden Keeper when successful over today’s trip at Wolverhampton last year and finished runner-up over 2m here last week. Seal Of Solomon won over a longer trip at Wolverhampton last autumn but SPIT SPOT scored over course and distance in September before ending last year with a second in a higher grade contest than this. She’s switched to James Fanshawe subsequently and the latter’s yard has been among the winners recently.
