      Verdict

      GABRIAL'S STAR scored over the trip at Wolverhampton in May but hasn't won since so is on a 13lb lower mark here. That may be enough of a drop to see off Sleep Easy, who has won five times for Neil Mullholland though his two latest victories have been over hurdles. Ruler Of The Nile is the only course and distance winner among the entries but his last two victories have also been over timber. Hurricane Hollow has been well beaten in both starts on the all-weather but has won a bumper and three races over hurdles but Bertie Moon hasn't been in the best of form since completing a double last summer.
