GLASVEGAS isn't long with his current stable and has been knocking on the door of late, third over 7f at this course on his latest outing, so a chance is taken on him to come out on top in this competitive event. In-form Mythmaker should be on the premises and Futuristic debuts for his new stable from a potentially lenient mark, so he's also a player if tuned up after an absence.
