LUST FOR GLORY won a Ludlow bumper then beat the prolific Posh Trish in a novices' hurdle at Newbury before beaten by that rival in a Listed race on the same track in softer going. There's nothing of that rival's quality here and she can get back to winning ways. Lady Kyria may have gone close at Catterick but for falling at the last though was then beaten a long way when third at Ayr but Mega Double made a promising hurdles debut on the former track and could be the one to chase home the selection.
