Verdict
It seems extraordinary to find that Mark Johnston has a horse rated just 31 in his yard and GLITTER BUG certainly deserves the mark that he's been allotted but it may still be worth siding with him in this modest nursery. He will have to race from a long way out of the weights but he was a short price to get the better of Racing Post Trophy entry Dubawi Gold on debut and attracted support next time. He has presumably been gelded since finishing last at Hamilton and that may help this relation to numerous winners leave his previous efforts behind. Regal Bullet has been running well, Till Dawn has track form to her name whilst Miss Toldyaso posted an improved performance at Redcar and may well prove capable of building on that.
