GLORY OF THE SEAS showed plenty to work on amidst obvious greenness on debut at Newcastle in November, losing out late on to one boasting an experience edge. This step up to 1¼m promises to suit and he's selected to find the requisite improvement and come out on top. Andrew Balding landed this race 12 months ago and his Turty Tree is an obvious danger following his good Doncaster third. Newcomer Water To Wine and Alderman are also worth a second look.
