Leonid Glow rates as a solid bet in this fillies' handicap; the others for the shortlist include Regal Veil and Miss Firefly. The selection lost no caste in defeat last time when she chased home Cassie's Choice at Catterick and she could be well-treated today for her handicap debut. Regal Veil has been knocking on the door of late and the yard are very shrewd so she is definitely one to note in the market. Miss Firefly has looked a hard ride in the past so it will be interesting to see if her young rider can get a good tune out of her today. She is relatively unexposed but she has yet to prove what her best trip is and she has questions to answer. Ian Wood had a welcome winner on Friday so his filly Easy Wonder is of interest, especially with Seb Sanders booked to take the ride. However, Leonid Glow is in good form and she can land the prize.
