Tullyorior Glory gets the vote in this competitive opener, with Splendidio and Cleveland the others to consider. This filly has got some decent form in Ireland and she was only beaten a head at Cork last time behind Marinebird. She has ground conditions to suit here and if she is strong in the market then it could pay to take the hint. Splendidio won well last time at Folkestone but she had the best of the draw that day and she may be slightly flattered by the form of that run. Cleveland ran respectably at Pontefract last time in a race won by El Potro, but all his best form is over a longer trip and for that reason we will take him on. Mickleberry won her maiden in good style last time and she does have Seb Sanders in the plate this afternoon so she could go well at a price. However, the Irish raider Tullyorior Glory looks to have been found a good opportunity here and she is taken to score.
