Verdict

Amour D'Or has won around here and goes well fresh so an absence since November is not a concern but this looks a good opportunity for GLOBAL THRILL. Bernard Llewellyn’s 10-year-old is 5lb lower than when successful in a Class 3 here a year ago and has placed at Ffos Las and Kempton since the turn of the year. Flanagans Field also represents the yard but was only fourth here off this mark after winning at Chepstow when Hold Me Tight was down the field. Maguire's Glen is eased in grade but is hard to catch right.
