    Verdict

    GLIMPSE OF GOLD actually seems to be improving with age and loves it around here. Aged 11, he is now on a career-high mark but can win again. John Betjeman couldn’t cope with a well-treated rival at Warwick four days ago but still ran well. Oslo easily won a Market Rasen maiden last time but didn’t beat much and will need to improve to land this and Irish import Grand Revival is now 0-9 over timber.
