Verdict

WADACRE GALOUBET was disappointing tried over 2m at Southwell last year but possibly saw too much daylight. He was staying on over 1m6f at Yarmouth on his reappearance and is worth another try over the trip. Cool Possibility is 2-2 this year but was entered at Thirsk yesterday. Clearance has turned into a solid dual-purpose performer for Iain Jardine so is respected but Gavlar is not getting any younger while Gabriel Oak is very one paced. Encryption may need this but Ron Thompson has had a couple of winners already this month.
