Requisite has a chance off top-weight, but in 75 starts Lord Of The Reins has yet to race over further than 6f. He landed a double at Kempton in April and has claims if lasting home, while Scottish Glen, Fivefold and Buxton are all C&D winners that have gone off the boil of late. Another C&D winner in Cat Hunter makes more appeal dropping in class today, but the vote goes to the less exposed ESCAPE TO GLORY, who looks up to winning in this grade on his handicap debut.
