I'm Lovin It gets the confident vote in this bumper with Blue Splash and Shakerattleandroll rated as the main dangers. The selection ran well last time in a bumper over this course and distance when finishing second behind Nocivo. If he can reproduce that effort today there is no reason why he can't get his head in front. Blue Splash is the one we fear the most as he does have a pull in the weights from finishing behind our selection last time. They will be closer today than they were last time and he is certainly worth a look in the market to see if there is any stable confidence behind him. Shakerattleandroll showed promise in his first two starts but he seemed to have regressed last time at Uttoxeter and he is difficult to back with any confidence until he shows a little more. The market will provide the clues regarding the chances of the newcomers here but we will stick with I'm Lovin It who sets a decent standard for the rest.
