Verdict
Honour The World is a fascinating contender for Tony Martin however COMMONS GLORY receives plenty of weight and is preferred to Planetarium. The selection also travels over from Ireland for this modest race and the last time that she came over she lost little caste in defeat behind the talented Mickmacmagoole. With the winner rated 118 and the runner-up 90, there are mixed messages from that selling form however she is still relatively unexposed and there may be more to come now stepped back up in trip. Planetarium is no superstar however he has been holding his form fairly well this year, whilst top-weight Honour The World returns to hurdles for this drop in class and he has a little to prove after some fairly lacklustre efforts. Fistral steps down in class and up in trip, whilst Golden Globe makes his hurdling debut in selling grade which is not too good a sign. At a price Noble Vic could run well as he represents the sponsors of the race, however it is Commons Glory who can come home in front.
