Decent, recent form is thin on the ground but Rosie's Glory and Wensleydale Web are two that ran quite well last time so they make the short-list which is completed by Andorran and Princess Of Aeneas. Rosie's Glory gets the vote. The Milton Harris trained filly won a claiming hurdle at Bangor quite impressively a couple of starts back and put a poor run behind her at Uttoxeter to run a big race in this grade at Perth. She's not the most consistent but that accusation could be levelled at most in this heat and a reproduction of her best performances should see her go close. Wensleydale Web was making the frame for just the second time in her career on her latest start at Sedgefield so there is a chance that she may not run up to the same level this evening. However, she does merit a place on the short-list following that performance. Prince Of Aeneas has shown precious little since winning over course and distance but a return to the scene of her victory could spark a revival. Andorran was below par last time but has claims on bits and pieces of his form and a top jockey has been engaged. He's well worth a market check but, for the time being, we'll side with the form horse, Rosie's Glory.
