In depth
Verdict
GLENGLADE remains unexposed having won at Wolverhampton on only his second start handicapping. He has enough scope to defy a 5lb rise and can go in again. Zoffalee went close over a longer trip at Wolverhampton recently and can race off the same mark today while King of Nepal has a shout on his second at Kempton last month. Dark Side Dream should do better back over 7f for this but Hammer Gun is best at Southwell.
