11/10
Showed improved form to get off the mark in a Navan maiden hurdle (15.7f) in September. Failed to progress further up in trip at Downpatrick (18.8f) last time but he's from a cracking family and retains potential back at 2m.

Ran to a fair level when fourth in a Wetherby bumper on debut in February but went backwards at Hexham next time. Off 7 months ahead of hurdle debut.

Fame And Glory gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/chaser Maria's Benefit. Pulled up on his sole start in Irish points but overcame inexperience to make a successful debut under Rules in a Sedgefield bumper in March (16.8f). Nice prospect.

Made some appeal on paper but went with no encouragement in a Kelso novice hurdle (16.2f, heavy) on debut in February.

Forecasts

Nonbinding (11/10), Glory Bridge (13/8), Pats Dream (5/1), Cowboy Cooper (25/1), Chapel Green (28/1), High Roller (33/1)

Verdict

GLORY BRIDGE overcame experience to land a Sedgefield bumper on his Rules debut back in March and is open to plenty of improvement now going jumping, so he edges the vote over Nonbinding, who admittedly retains potential back at 2m. Pats Dream would also enter calculations if the market speaks in his favour.
