Good pace with In Love booting up inside the speedy pair She's Xtravagant and Effusiv. BEYOND MYSTI (12) was a sharp debut winner back in November before being immediately spelled. She has been tuned up with a slick trial and looks well placed to kick off her prep on the right note. ICE SYMPHONY (3) finished full of running here first-up in what has since proven a strong form race. Has been kept fresh with 35 days between runs, though she will need a clever ride from a tricky draw. IN LOVE (4) will bounce straight to the front from the inside draw and give supporters another bold sight after proving too sharp here three weeks ago when leading throughout. A repeat would not surprise. EFFUSIV (10) was too bad to be true last start when never in the race. She has been kept in work, suggesting they have ironed out whatever went wrong. Her best form has her in the finish. MORRIS MINOR (1) resumes and will appreciate what should be a genuine tempo. Expect him to be charging late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Beyond Mysti to return a winner.
