Glengarry set for triumphant return to Ayr

Tips: Dip in level can pay dividends after previous disappoint­ment

- The ferreT

GLENGARRY disappoint­ed when down the field on his final start of last year at Ayr but can make a triumphant return to that track in the QTS Handicap.

Upped to slightly better company, he found That Is The Spirit far too good but a dip in level for his comeback can pay dividends.

COLE HARDEN is an interestin­g contender in the Weatherbys General Stud Book Online Beginners’ Chase at Ffos Las as he has another cut at fences.

Connection­s intended taking the novice chase route with the former Stayers’ Hurdle champion last term. But, after his first attempt in December, Warren Greatrex adjusted plans and went back to hurdles.

Cole Harden was not disgraced in finishing behind U now ha time an harry in the Cleeve or when fourth at the Festival.

However, his lacklustre show at Aintree probably underlines that he is not quite top rank in that discipline any more.

Another go at the chasing game makes sense, though.

He should still be fit enough to have a good go. SELECTIONS: AYR: 2.00 Poet’s Reward, 2.30 Sketch Book Venue, 3.00 Spes Nostra, 3.30 Strummer, 4.00 El Hombre, 4.30 Glengarry, 5.00 Not A Bad Oul Day.
