Gloriously Glam heads this 17-runner Punchestown field on good ground over nine furlongs, rated narrowly ahead of Glamazon, with the pair clearly the picks of the ratings among a competitive field. Glamazon represents the most obvious threat, sitting just four pounds off the top of the assessments, while Autocrat and Casheldale Lass will also need to be accounted for in what looks a genuinely open contest. The confidence here is not high, and with such a sizeable field on good ground the race could develop in a number of ways, but on form and merit the case points to Gloriously Glam.
