In depth
Verdict
Glorious Angel is penalised for winning over 6f here a week ago having earlier finished behind LORD SAM’S CASTLE over today’s trip at Newcastle in November. The latter would have finished closer last time if not for being hampered on a couple of occasions and gets another chance in this. Prince Nabeel showed signs of a return to form here a week ago and cheekpieces are applied while Mogok Valley is upped in trip on the back of a second at Kempton.
