Verdict

Gabrial The One won a course and distance handicap in this grade last month and ran well when stepped up to Class 2 company on a return visit a fortnight ago. He was engaged in the 8.40 here last night so that result should be monitored. Paradise Boy had been racing exclusively on the all-weather before finishing last of four on his Turf debut at Haydock but wasn't suited by heavy ground and should do better. Heart Of Soul took advantage of very testing conditions to score here last month but was well beaten behind SUPER KID over the track and trip two weeks ago. Tim Easterby's charge has been raised just 3lb but has won from much higher marks and can go in again. James Park Woods has more scope than most of these but takes a big step-up in trip.
