In depth
Verdict
GLORIOUS TWELFTH could cap a memorable afternoon for Nicky Henderson and A P McCoy if she improves a little on her second over a similar trip at Newbury. Grand Exit looks the danger on her second at Market Rasen in July but she hasn't raced since. Brockwell Park was well behind the selection on her debut under Rules but improved to finish runner-up at Wincanton and is preferred to As I Am, pulled up at Fakenham last month. Venetia Williams has her string in good order but Toubeera may just need this after a lengthy absence.
