Verdict
LUXY LOU won with plenty in hand at Bath last month and another bold bid is expected despite a 4lb rise. Coffeemeanscoffee beat Galileo Glass and Kenstone over 7f here before winning again over 6f at Ffos Las while Hostelry placed again when narrowly beaten at Ayr. Galactic Glow has done all her winning over longer trips so far and placed over 1m2f last week.
