        Verdict

        This looks wide open, though Albegone lacks a recent outing and Mews House is penalised and has been plying his trade at a lower level. GLORIOUS RIO is 3lb lower than when scoring on quick ground over course and distance last August, when Ramon Di Loria was third, and can reverse Newcastle running with Princess Karine on more favourable terms. Our Absent Friends and The Thin Blue Line both arrive in good form with the latter holding Huddle Up on Hamilton running.
