Verdict
Gleno has been racing off higher marks over fences but, like Classic Escape, seems best over the larger obstacles. Get Prepared tries a new trip but would not have been suited by heavy going at Huntingdon on Boxing Day. Steinkraus failed to cope with a 7lb rise at Hereford earlier this month but the better ground here should aid his cause. FLEXI FURLOUGH is 0-10 but no-one would begrudge Gillian Boanas’ grey a first success over timber given a string of consistent efforts. Heure De Gloire is worth a market check but Blow By Blow looks vulnerable again.
