    Verdict

    G FOR GABRIAL has been thereabouts in tougher handicaps than this including a second at Chester last time. Richard Fahey’s charge can go one better back at this level. Dreams Unwind ran below par when favourite at Newbury while Haizoom has switched yards since scoring over 1m6f at Sandown on last month’s handicap debut and is 4lb higher. Engles Rock has something to prove over this far while Tristan Da Cunha has shown little in maiden company.
