This is the weaker of the two divisions so top weight Glennten enters the argument eased back in grade. Simon Walker's mount has won five times on the all-weather, including twice here, and is unlikely to be far away. Serena Brotherton rides John Potts, another regular winner on artificial surfaces, and he's preferred to Kempton third Estibdaad and Rainford Glory, who is only a plater. HAIL PROMENADER has won twice from four previous starts on this track. He'll have needed last week's run at Southwell, his first since July, and with James Hughes taking off 5lb could be a bit of value.
