Ruaraidh Hugh appears to be improving at a rate of knots and Tommie O'Brien's claim will aid his hat-trick bid. But he's upped in grade here and faces an in-form rival in easy Fontwell winner Antony, who carries a penalty. Age Of Glory is lightly raced but Ballycamp has been done no favours on his handicap debut and looked a tricky ride last time at Southwell. LAWSONS THORNS travelled really strongly over further here last time but was left with too much to do. He could open his account today if ridden closer to the pace.
