O'moore Park, a half-brother to a winning bumper, came in for strong support at Umma House last month and had no difficulty justifying the confidence. He'll take some beating but GLENGLASS is now with Gordon Elliott after landing a point at Tallow for Colin Bowe back in February last year and with his yard in unstoppable form can overcome the long absence, especially as the runner-up has won twice over timber in Britain. The remaining trio look as though they will be battling it out for a place.
