In depth
Verdict
A race of quantity rather than quality but Glory Days from a top yard with a good record at this meeting looks the one to be on, on his old form he is thrown in and he will be hard to beat now he is dropped to this selling grade despite top weight. Game Leader looks the main danger with the return to the minimum trip sure to suit and he has also been running with a modicum of promise in better handicaps and he will appreciate the drop in grade. Temper Tantrum has shown fair form over seven furlongs and a mile and it is debatable weather he will have the toe to make his presence felt over this trip despite a drop in grade. Goodwood Promise is well drawn in stall one and if he shows some of his old sparkle he could run well at a fair price. Rapid Liner could also be well in and run well at a fair price.
