Verdict

Theglasgowwarrior looked unlucky when just missing out on a double at Hamilton having failed to get a clear run at a crucial time in the race. He’s been raised a further 3lb for that and GABRIAL’S KING is preferred. The latter has slipped down the weights since a fourth over track and trip back in May and a recent second at Beverley suggests a bold bid is in the offing. Stablemate Monaco Rose has some improving to do to figure while Earthly slides further down the handicap and Kajaki scored off a higher mark here last year.
