In depth
Verdict
Gabrial The Duke has won on Fibresand and Tapeta this winter and is only 4lb higher than when last successful on Turf. Moccasin was well behind the top weight at Southwell in February but did win at Wolverhampton last month and makes more appeal than the one-paced Innoko and Rockawango, who has been jumping. Jammy Moment is still a maiden and was beaten in a seller last year while Card High is upped in grade on his return to action. Titus Bolt was enterprisingly ridden to win over a slightly longer trip here in the autumn but PRESSURE POINT wasn't far behind at the finish having been given plenty to do. Keith Dalgleish's might well reverse that form today on 3lb better terms and gets the nod.
