The penalised runners appear to have this contest between them, and they are not easy to split. GLORY AND FORTUNE was behind Calva D'Auge at Haydock in November, but shaped at least as well as that rival, and is less exposed, so gets a narrow vote. The race which Faire Part Sivola won at Leicester was of lesser merit, but he did it impressively, and wouldn't need to improve much to be a match for the other pair.
