Robsdelight posted a better effort at Newbury last month having slipped down the weights and could figure while Dubai Acclaim has been gelded since last in action and is preferred to stablemates Knowing Glance and International Man. Both the latter and Miss Mumtaz have scored over 1m1f this year but Kyllachy Dragon has yet to win anywhere yet and slips further down the handicap. GLAMOROUS DREAM has already won twice this year and has subsequently gone close off a higher mark at Salisbury. Ron Harrris’ front-runner wasn’t at her best on the all-weather last time but should make a bold bid in this if allowed her own way on the lead and she gets the vote.
