THRILLA IN MANILLA has been getting closer to winning for Paul Midgley after changing stables and led for a long way at Ripon last week. Lord Of The Glen, six-times an all-weather winner, gained his first-ever victory on his 25th start on Turf at Musselburgh last month though took advantage of soft going. Rose Bandit gained her only success to date on this track though that was on just her second start back in 2019. Guardia Svizzera hasn't won since November 2019 but ran his best race for a very long time here last time and is 1lb lower.
