Verdict

GLORY HIGHTS proved a reliable type over hurdles (won here) and could be worth siding with to take a big step forward from his recent chasing bow at Newcastle when a late blunder scuppered his chances. Azof des Mottes (second choice) and Torosay fought out a good finish at Ayr last time and look the duo to give Chris Grant's gelding most to do.
