A wide-open handicap rounds off the card with many in form rivals in opposition including Noble Pursuit, Miss Glory Be and Sorbiesharry and we will take a chance on the top weight Miss Glory Be. The five-year-old was disappointing last time out but prior to that had been a good third behind Strong Hand. That form has since been franked and despite her big weight she is taken to score. Noble Pursuit rates the main danger he ran as if returning to form when fourth behind Sky Dome last time. He is from a very shrewd yard and any market confidence should be noted. Sorbiesharry is also worthy of respect he was fourth behind Fight The Felling last time but the drop back in distance is not sure to suit. Bella Pavlina was third in a seller behind Royal Prodigy last time but this looks tougher. Of the remainder Tanga Dancer is another that would have a chance on his best form but disappointed last time so we are happy to side with Miss Glory Be.
