Gabrial The Tiger overcame inexperience and Chester's bends to land a moderate maiden and can only improve over this much more suitable track. WHITE VIN JAN has already won three times including over the course and distance so with Cam Hardie's claim a bonus she's can gain victory number four. Poolstock has been showing good pace over the minimum trip and ran his best race to date at Musselburgh a fortnight ago while Straightothepoint has been very consistent and has run well on his last two starts here. Doc Charm has competed in much higher class than this after an easy maiden success on soft ground at Ayr. If the going eased he would prove difficult to beat.
