Life Of Laughter had Icanseeclearlynow and the well-backed Military Man behind when successful on his debut at Huntingdon but it would be no surprise if both reversed the form on today's more favourable terms. Eight Keys finished ahead of H M S Intrepid when runner-up to My Inheritance at Ffos Las and should go well but we expect a big run from Neil King's JOLLY VALENTINE on this surface. He's a half-brother to a smart miler on the dirt in the States and a couple of all-weather specialists in this country so is certainly bred for the task in hand. Emma Lavelle's Juhd is another debutant with possibilities.
