Verdict
This is a competitive handicap and MISS GLITTERS looks to hold solid claims and she is put forward to beat Lujano and Elusive Warrior. Hugh Morrison's filly is a lightly-raced type and she won on her sole appearance over this course and distance. She was only narrowly denied last time and she looks to be on upward curve so she should take plenty of stopping. Lujano is more exposed than our selection but he won well here last time. He was given an easy lead that day and he might not get the run of the race today so he will have to improve to win this. Elusive Warrior is a real course specialist and he will be hard to keep out of the frame, while Mick Easterby has three runners in this race and the market may give an indication to which one, if any, is fancied. An open race and the vote goes to Miss Glitters.
