Verdict

Azure Glamour meets Home For Tea on identical terms as when triumphing by a nose over course and distance 12 days ago so there is likely to be much to choose between the pair again. Orchard Road appears to be treading water off his current mark while Copt Hill is still 4lb higher than for his only success so far. BEAUMONT'S PARTY is a little quirky but has ability when in the mood and the track and trip winner can put his speed to good use in a race like this.
