Verdict

Olympic Honour did win at Ffos Las last summer under Eleanor Williams but hasn’t raced since October and Loved Out might be the stable’s first string. Port Or Starboard is now 0-14 in career starts but is often in the firing-line. GLORY AND HONOUR hasn’t had much luck recently but this represents a drop in grade for the top weight. His yard is in good form and, with cheekpieces applied, he can end his losing run with Great Ocean a very disappointing odds-on favourite on his handicap debut at Sandown.
