Verdict
Global Style has now only found one too good in three of his last four starts but a career record of 0-24 is off-putting and he is conceding weight all round. Chelmsford winner NOBLE QUEEN was a couple of lengths behind Tony Carroll’s charge last time at Kempton but didn’t really get the run of the race and is slightly better off today. She is the least exposed and can take her revenge. Fivehundredmiles is only 2lb higher than when scoring at Chelmsford in the autumn and is having his first run on Polytrack since.
