Useful gelding who looked as good as ever when excellent second from the front in York's Ebor Handicap off this mark. Went off the boil after but could bounce back on return.

Highly progressive in 2019, winning 4 times at up to 17.5f. Struggled upped in class last season but this more realistic and is fit from hurdling.

Bolted up in a 1¾m handicap at Chester on final 4-y-o start but was unable to add to tally last season off revised mark. Fairly useful form over hurdles since.

Better than ever on the AW this winter, winning last 2 starts at Lingfield. Leaves the impression this trip should be within his compass.

Completed hat-trick in 7-runner handicap at Haydock (16.2f, soft, 11/4) in October before unsuited by emphasis on speed when beaten in match event at Chelmsford the following month. Of interest.

Ended losing run in a useful staying handicap at Wolverhampton 7 weeks ago, looking better than ever. Should continue to give a good account.

Verdict

GLENCADAM GLORY ended last season out of form but he was runner-up in the Ebor at York off this mark so could be worth chancing. Mark Johnston holds a strong hand, with Themaxwecan and Trumpet Man looking the pick of his 5 runners.

  1. GLENCADAM GLORY
  2. THEMAXWECAN (IRE)
  3. TRUMPET MAN
