Richard Fahey has a good record in this contest and Gabrial The Devil beat Lihou when scoring over 5f here in June. Look Out Louis won over 6f at the track in the same month while Mountain Brave also scored here on her penultimate start. Venturous returned a surprise winner at York last time but had finished well behind JABBAROCKIE when the latter made all at the May meeting here. Eric Alston’s charge will be sharper for a recent comeback and should go close if allowed his own way in front. Sunday Sovereign is not out of this while Aplomb finished in front of King Of Stars when beaten a length at Ascot recently.
