In depth
Verdict
Glor Tire has shown a decent level of form and is preferred to stablemate Sli Na Ghealai but is the most exposed of these and ANDROMEDA (NAP) is likely to be a short-priced favourite. A sister to four winners, including the classic winner Peaceful, she has some fancy entries in the coming weeks having been a real eye-catcher behind well-backed stable companion Opera Singer at Leopardstown. She has nothing to fear from third Enthralling on the form book. Of the newcomers, Hazbaiya is a half-sister to two winners and is preferred to Camelot Alexander and Shelaka.
