Hornboy has been placed in his last three starts but is clearly no world-beater. Herbalist never built on a close second at Leicester in August last year and is blinkered on his return but there should be more to come from Newbury sixth Glanely and his stable is in good form. Noble Deed and Realize should be thereabouts again but the four-year-old Tee It Up Tommo was well beaten when made favourite for his Southwell debut. AGLAOPHONOS has run well twice over this trip on Polytrack and, with the switch to Turf unlikely to be a problem, can get off the mark today.
