In depth
Verdict
Out The Glen won three Class 5 handicaps earlier this year and is likely to have needed his comeback in this grade at Southwell. Jobesgreen Lad completed a double around this time a year ago but a 7lb rise for last month's Hereford victory makes this tougher. Lots Of Luck has an absence to overcome but FLANN was having only his second start over fences when scoring convincingly at Leicester and can defy a 5lb rise. Town Parks has won off a much higher mark around here and has raced in better class the last twice.
