ABOUT GLORY completed a double over 1m2f at Bath last month. He has something to prove over this longer trip but has the best recent form of these. Homesick Boy was placed over 1m4f at Kempton recently when ahead of the less exposed Capla Huntress while this is no tougher than the claimer Shovel It On finished third in here last time and Midnight Mood also placed in plating company last time.
