In depth
Verdict
Be Glorious is penalised for winning a handicap over track and trip while Dukedom drops down in distance after finishing second at Haydock and is fitted with a visor. Aussie Banker is another down in trip but ANTIPHON was narrowly beaten over 6f at Wolverhampton last time and Andrew Balding’s colt may prove the one to side with. Cabeza De Llave looks best of the remainder on what they’ve shown so far.
