Height of Glory may turn out to be one to follow, and he can be fancied to oblige at the expense of the reappearing Windermere Island, with Moon Bird and Bold Cheverak others worth a mention at least. Neville Callaghan looks to have found the right opportunity for Height of Glory to open his account after the colt's debut over five furlongs here three weeks ago. He ran very green that day so did well in the circumstances to finish as close as he did to the favourite Stephanie's Mind, and as he is a half-brother to a mile juvenile winner, the son of Grand Lodge can only benefit from this next step up in trip. Kieren Fallon wears the Tabor silks and it will not be for the want of trying if he fails to deliver. Windermere Island also posted a promising effort on her Yarmouth debut last August but will need the run, while Moon Bird has been off for three months and will also be a bit ring-rusty. Bold Cheverak has more experience but has already had his limitations exposed somewhat, and Daniel O'Donnell will probably not be on song today on his introduction. All in all, it will be a disappointment if Height of Glory does not prove too good today.
