Verdict

Lord Of The Glen was placed in a similar sprint over track and trip last month when finishing ahead of Kommander Kirkup and Avenue Of Stars with Meshardal further behind. He has every chance on that form while Gunmaker looks likely to take advantage of a slide down the weights before long on a recent third at Chelmsford and is preferred to Puchita. But LORETTA failed to see out the 7f at Wolverhampton last time and, having gone close in novice company over course and distance before that, Julie Camacho’s filly is fancied to come out best with headgear fitted for her handicap debut.
