Verdict

A 7lb rise may prove beyond Flag Of Glory after winning at Leicester and Benoordenhout is upped a further 4lb for his recent win over track and trip. Estibdaad remains 6lb higher than his course win in July but Tax Reform has slipped down the weights and went close at Brighton last time. Two In The Pink usually finds at least one too good but SWEET P is fancied to improve for the step up in distance.
