4/1
Progressive Passing Glance gelding who went 2-2 this term on his handicap bow at Worcester (20f, good to soft) 45 days ago, doing well to get up given he blundered 3 out. Big shout in his hat-trick bid with this step up to 3m also a likely positive.

4/1
Signed off for Olly Murphy wth Plumpton win and followed up for his new trainer at Wetherby later in October. Recorded a good third of 7 (off 6 lb higher mark) in 25f Catterick handicap 15 days ago so must enter calculations.

Has been brought along steadily, seventh of 9 in novice hurdle at Bangor (16.7f, heavy) 24 days ago. Significantly up in trip for his handicap bow and no forlorn hope.

Forecasts

Top Guy (5/2), Princesse Milania (4/1), Glance Of Glory (4/1), Sandscape (5/1), Dixie Mafia (13/2), Bombay Pete (11/1), The Clonmel Kid (14/1), The Great Escape (25/1)

Verdict

Plenty are in with a shout but the improving GLANCE OF GLORY did well to maintain his unbeaten record for the season at Worcester after a late blunder and can complete a hat-trick on his first attempt at 3m now. Christian Williams' handicap debutant Dixie Mafia appeals as a likely improver and could emerge as the chief threat, although in-form pair Sandscape and Princesse Milania can both have a say too. Top Guy completes the shortlist.
