A host of chances in a wide-open affair but unlike a number of these DOKTOR GLAZ remains unexposed over the larger obstacles, over which he ran his best race to date last time when a fair fourth behind Havana Jack at Kelso. He will surely improve as he gains further experience over fences and the application of a first-time visor could aid his chance too. Golden Investment has been placed in seven of his eight starts over fences and seems highly likely to make the places once again, whilst Cant Pay Wont Pay, stable companion of the selection, should go well for the Delahunt family after moving from Ireland. Inchcolm failed to fire on his comeback run but has claims at his best along with Sharney Sike.
