    Verdict

    Glasshoughton, Digital and Bahamian Balet are the three to look at in another tricky affair, with the well drawn Glasshoughton taken to come out on top. Bahamian Ballet won twice over the minimum trip last season and enjoys cut in the ground which he has here. He has slipped down the handicap a little having finished off last season in good form, and can go well from a stable who had a winner on Monday. Digital is possibly the busiest horse in training but he seems to thrive on the action, and he has already added to his winning tally this season. He seems to be slightly improved this year, and it would be no surprise to see him go close here after a good third last time. Glasshoughton, a dual winner last season including a course and distance success, showed enough on his debut this year where he was hampered at the start, to suggest he can improve for that effort here. Drawn just three off the far rail and representing the in form Michael Dods, Glasshoughton can get off the mark for the season.
