There are clearly races to be won with Prince Of Denial once the handicapper releases his grip. But the top weight does himself few favours by continually running up to his mark and may have to give best again here to GILWEN GLORY. Evan Williams' mare has been given a month off since disappointing at Ffos Las but her earlier form was fairly soild and she is probably still on a decent mark. Bishophill Jack has shown promise and can't be ignored but Lyster may be too high in the weights now and Always Waining hasn't been firing this season.
