Verdict

WAR AND LOVE shaped well amidst considerable greenness when third at Lingfield last week and seemingly the sort to improve markedly with that initial experience under her belt, Sir Mark Prescott's filly gets the nod at the expense of Spirit of Jura, who should be able to build on a couple of promising Wolverhampton efforts. Seconds Count can edge out recent winner Lovesick for third.
