Verdict

Gary Moore enjoys plenty of success here and the yard is going well at present. ET MOI ALORS has slowly slipped to a mark from which he should be capable of winning and he was third around here last time – the fitting of cheekpieces can help him get off the mark this evening. Gambling Gamut ran his best race so far at Exeter last month and Buster Edwards has hinted at ability. Robinesse has placed over a variety of trips but is hampered by a lack of pace.
