Verdict
Glorious Dane has shown improvement since stepped up to 1m4f on the Flat at Thirsk recently but is not really bred for jumping. MUST SEE THE DOC won on soft going at Doncaster a year ago. He’s been lightly raced since and has now joined a top NH yard so should have a future over timber. War Eagle hasn’t really fired this year but did win on Tapeta in the autumn and would probably be the pick of the remainder if taking to jumping.
