Verdict: LOVE IS WICKED is a confident pick. He could capitalise if the leaders go too fast and is bidding for his third course success, while Estrella Fugaz is another to consider.

Sea Of Tranquility

Jockey: J Acosta Trainer: Michael Jones Age/Wt: 4/8-8 F: 117166

Comment: Last of six in a claimer seven days ago on debut for this trainer; his tally of course-and-distance wins stands at three; others appeal more as this looks a fair heat.

Johnson

Jockey: Wesley Ho Trainer: Barry King Age/Wt: 5/8-12 F: 43036

Comment: Out of the frame (beaten 8l in fifth) over 7f here (maiden claimer, bumped at the start) last month; still winless and defeats stacking up (16 on the bounce); this demands more than last time so may have to settle for supporting role at best.
