Verdict
Luv U could only manage fourth in similar company here recently but first-time blinkers may bring some improvement. ANNIVERSARIE (NAP) also needs to step up on her latest fourth over 7f here but this is only her second start handicapping and the longer trip should also suit. Le Ruoquin is a similar type not beaten that far on his handicap bow despite finishing only seventh while Little Miss Mighty has the scope to improve past the likes of Blue Burmese, Lady Spangles and Naval Action.
