Tamasou has claims on his second at Wolverhampton last time, but he'll need luck in-running if he's held-up for a late run from his high draw. The same comment applies to Saturn Way and Holiday Snap, while Khajaaly and Woolston Ferry have never won on turf. Too Many Questions is open to improvement after three runs on Polytrack, but the vote goes to GLASS MOUNTAIN. James Fanshawe's charge will appreciate the return to a longer trip after finishing fourth at Doncaster on his latest start and better is expected on his handicap debut.
