Futuristic should go well again on the back of a course and distance success but Power Over Me is upped in class after beating Diamond Dougal here and the latter re-opposes on more favourable terms. GABRIAL THE DEVIL wasn’t at his best at Southwell last time but was beaten at the post over 7f at Lingfield before that and a similar effort should see him confirm running with Concierge in the process of going one better. Treacherous is 6lb higher than when scoring at Goodwood in August though is still preferred to Ledham.
