RACE STATS RACE SUMMARY

The likeable LOVE ACTUALLY is taken to maintain her unbeaten record over fences having been raised just 3lb for her game success in a decent Kempton handicap This will be no easy pickings, though, with C&D winner Rose of Arcadia, who didn’t perform at all badly in listed company last time, clearly a big threat.The other two both have a little to prove, with Good Luck Charm taken to edge out DoYou Think in the race for minor place money
