Glen Harley, Kahysera, True Temper and Miss Nosey form the short list, with the vote given to Glen Harley. Glen Harley has certainly shown some ability and it will be interesting to see how the drop in trip works today. A repeat of Kahysera's course and distance third two runs ago puts her in the mix, while True Temper has been running well over longer trips of late and, even though the form is modest, this is a modest race. Finally, Miss Nosey showed some promise in a better race than this at Wetherby last time and, with it being such an ordinary contest, could go well. Overall, though, we will stick with Glen Harley.
