LOVER’S GAIT switched yards at the end of last season and has won both starts so far for the Kubler’s yard. She landed a double at Bath with her latest success and a 4lb rise may not be enough to prevent the hat-trick. Alpine Mistral also bids for a treble on the back of a victory at Yarmouth but has an 11lb hike to contend with while Alianne went close over a mile here in a maiden handicap last time. Several make their handicap debuts with Keep It Brief preferred to El Salvaje, Curtiz and Delgrey Boy.
