MISS GLITTERS should be a warm order for this heat although Tamasou and Elusive Fame should have a say in proceedings. The selection benefited from a good ride to score over course and distance but she still looked decent value for the success as she showed plenty of desire when challenged. She's been raised by 6lbs but the in-form rival that she got the better of has gone on to win her next two starts so her chance is there for all to see. Tamasou merits respect on the form of his latest run but that came at Wolverhampton and he has something to prove on the evidence of his sole outing at Southwell to date. Elusive Fame has no such concerns as his course record stands at three wins and a third from just five visits. He was held by Salerosa from this mark just four days ago but should run his race and be thereabouts. Hits Only Jude is another that enters calculations on a recent run behind Salerosa but it will be disappointing if Miss Glitters can't put her rivals to the sword.
