Verdict

Strong Glance has yet to recapture his excellent bumper form but he starts out life for a new yard in a weak looking race, and has been given an excellent chance to score. However, he won't be a working man's price and in the hope the eight runners line up, an each-way play on YOUNG OFFENDER might be the way to go. He showed a lot more when finishing midfield behind Severano at Chepstow and that form looks decent. He can throw down a challenge to the likely favourite and expose any chinks in his armour. Xcitations is the other with form in the bank and a clear round should see him in the medals.
