Verdict
AMBER GAMBLER is still 5lb higher than when completing a four-timer at Taunton around this time last year but he’d clearly benefited from a comeback run when a staying-on fourth over a shorter trip at Sandown earlier this month and should be approaching peak fitness now. Capard King has been dropped another pound since his third over 3m2f here last time and is now starting to look well treated. With Killian Moore claiming a further 5lb, he looks a danger to all. Shanroe In Milan has plenty of scope and should be winning soon while Bako De La Saulaie ran well for a long way on his chasing bow at Newcastle. Captain Mowbray was third off his new mark at Catterick after winning at Wetherby but this looks a better race.
