Verdict

Ballyfarsoon followed a 1m6f victory at the track with a win over course and distance. He beat Shadows Ofthenight last time and should be in the mix once again despite a 5lb rise. But GABRIAL THE TERROR has the stronger form as he also bids for a hat-trick on the back of a couple of course wins over 1m4f. Richard Fahey's charge is fancied to stay this longer trip and come out best. Three-time course and distance winner Uncle Bernie now looks in the handicapper's grip but Lingfield winner Daydreamer is not easily dismissed stepping up in distance.
