RISE TO GLORY has shown steady improvement this year and ran his best race so far when caught inside the final furlong at Wolverhampton last Saturday. He gets the tentative vote to open his account here given Super Frank has been well beaten off today's mark since scoring at Lingfield in February. Avonvalley and My Best Man were both winners in January but look too high in the weights now, though C&D winner Running Mate has claims if rolling out his best on his first start since September.
