In depth
Verdict
Hidden Glen may be the pick of Mike Sowerby’s trio but that’s not saying much and he was behind WAKE UP EARLY here last month. Richard Newland’s charge shoulders a welter burden again but is meeting inferior rivals. Going Mobile has become disappointing and is held on the book while Ballycorr took a backward step at Warwick but Kingston King returned to form with a second at Stratford, though has gone up 3lb.
