Desert Lord is the rock solid favourite in the Glasshouse Handicap

Impressive first up winner Desert Lord is favourite with Sportsbet.com.au for the Glasshouse Handicap (1400m) this Sunday at the Sunshine Coast.

The David Vandyke trained galloper resumed three weeks ago at Ipswich where he was ridden with a bit of arrogance but the ride was rewarded with a dominant win. On his home track and up in trip looks an ideal recipe and the early market agrees, having him as a $4.50 favourite.

The class runner of the field is Niccanova and he is rock solid as a $6 chance. He sits on the second line of betting ahead of Charleise, a $6.50 chance, who dodged the Tatts Tiara to be saved for here.
