This is anybody’s race but DREAMS OF GLORY won at Windsor back in October and drops down a grade for this. He’s taken to reverse earlier form with Noble Asset. The latter has a chance off his current mark and Richter Scale finished just ahead of Nuala Tagula at Newcastle recently having tumbled down the weights. David’s Beauty won at Beverley in August and Temple Road is back on a winning mark.
