Verdict

FLAG OF GLORY won one of these events under Michelle Edden at Nottingham last time. Rub Of The Relic was over three lengths behind and the winner can go confirm the form and go in again. Grammar beat Blue Top by only a nose at Beverley recently but the latter re-opposes on better terms today while Slide Show had Light The City well behind when scoring over track and trip a fortnight ago and should also be in the mix. Maybeme goes well for an amateur and is another to consider after a recent success at Beverley.
