Gabrial The Viking pulled far too hard on his reappearance at Chelmsford and can do much better as can Nona Blu, who also fought for his head on his final start at Kempton having won there earlier. Resonant makes his handicap debut from a fair mark but being by Cape Cross he may appreciate a stiffer test of stamina. Spryt has run well for David O'Meara after joining the yard from Dermot Weld, though he could have done without a 5lb rise for last week's second at Beverley. VOLUNTEER POINT (NAP) made a successful debut at Kempton in December but then ran moderately there the following month. She made her Turf debut over this trip at Windsor last week and didn't get the best of runs so she can improve enough to gain compensation.
