Roll It In Glitter made a winning reappearance over track and trip when beating Orchestra. He’s also preferred to Newcastle winner Eagle Prince, who scored over a mile. SERENGETI SUNSET ran fresh at Yarmouth on his return but the Gosdens’ colt will improve back over this longer distance for his handicap debut and a bold bid is expected. Leading Company won twice over shorter trips here last season while Blueflagflyinghigh and Tiamat both placed at Newcastle last time and the returning Perfect Play is not out of this either.
