GOT GLORY is hardly one for maximum faith given her completion record but she's the form pick on these terms and her all-conquering stable has won 4 of the last 7 renewals. Noel Meade's Blue Mosque may appreciate the return to slightly shorter and is second choice ahead of the promising Locked Box.
