In depth
Verdict
This looks to be a good opportunity for the well-bred Glamorous Girl to enhance her paddocks value and the daughter of Darshaan is preferred over Total Devotion and Archmail - although a move for the newcomer Stolen Hours will be interesting. However, Glamorous Girl is bred for this trip and will appreciate the extra distance today. She showed a willing attitude behind a useful sort from the James Fanshawe yard on her debut at Yarmouth and, with that experience under her belt, Glamorous Girl can help to maintain a good strike-rate from her stable's runners with horses of this nature.
