Verdict

GLENLOE had his Cheltenham form given a boost by the excellent run of Delta Work yesterday and he deserves to win a big prize after some good efforts. He can once again have the measure of A Great View, who wasn't far behind him there and can prove the main danger today. Stoneford is lightly raced and may improve plenty here, and he should be considered for the places along with Miles To Memphis , Ah Littleluck and Dicey O'Reilly.
