Race preview
A small but competitive field, with an above-average performance potentially required in order to land this nursery. GALILEO GLASS stepped up when making a winning handicap debut at Doncaster last month and he may have even more to offer now moving up in trip. He is narrowly favoured ahead of Bonita B, who performed well in a higher grade at Newmarket last week, while Hollow Steel has shown progressive form recently and cannot be discounted as she seeks a third successive win.
