Verdict

HAPPY LOVE pulled clear of the rest when runner-up to the more experienced and now useful Rosberg in Beverley maiden in July and has been found an excellent opportunity after a break. Imperialism was getting the hang of things late at Kempton and is next best with improvement almost certain.
