Verdict
Any market support for the Gosden newcomer Reeth should be noted as he’s a half-brother to two winners. Glenn Miller hails from a yard that can get one ready at home but GLOBAL HERO sets a decent standard. The Godolphin colt, a 320,000gns son of Dubawi, made an impressive start when beating race-fit rivals at Salisbury and may be capable of giving 6lb to House Of Kings. The latter has been placed in both starts so far but didn’t really progress from his third at Newbury when second last time at Ffos Las. Global Quality hinted at ability on his introduction and probably has more scope than Chicago Doll among the others.
