Verdict
The consistent LORD OF THE GLEN continues to improve and won at Southwell earlier in the week. He’d earlier finished ahead of Slowmo and Gorgeous Gobolina when runner-up here and beat Arcavallo when scoring over track and trip in September. Raabeh is due a big hike in the weights after this having posted his best effort so far in novice company at Wolverhampton while St Anne's is one to note handicapping for the first time with a tongue-tie applied.
