      Verdict

      Gabrial The Devil beat Major Jumbo a neck over 6f here last month though neither are at the best on soft going. Lihou and Bossipop finished behind the above pair and First Company is another with something to find on earlier running at the track. MILITIA is upped in class after scoring at Catterick but is versatile as regards the ground and Paul Midgley’s charge can figure once again. Soul Seeker is back on a winning mark but has done all his winning on a fast surface so far.
