Verdict
GLENYS THE MENACE seems to be progressing quickly given how she performed in the Shergar Cup Classic at Ascot last time out, and with this trip apparently her best and a 3lb rise looking potentially lenient, it would be no surprise to see her get her head in front for the fourth time in two month back in the hands of a jockey who knows her well. She faces a capable field, though. including Nathania , who has the potential to be a fair bit better than these kinds of races if learning to settle in her races, and Lady Bergamot , who ran well in defeat at York last time.
