Verdict
Glorious Step looks to hold an outstanding chance here and is taken to score, with Call Me Max, Briannsta and Fair Along looking best of the rest. The selection showed plenty of promise when finishing third, beaten two necks, to Queen Of Poland at Yarmouth on her debut. Given that the winner has since gone on to score at Listed level, the value of the form is there for all to see. Call Me Max showed plenty of promise when fourth, beaten around a length, to Active Asset at Yarmouth on his debut, and he looks set to be in the shake-up, while Briannsta also showed promise on his debut, but Little Miss Gracie's overall form is only modest thus far. Fair Along made his first hint at ability on his latest run and is now stepped up to a mile for the first time and Tranquilizer is possibly one to watch for in the betting. However, for the winner we turn to Glorious Step.
