Verdict
GALA CASINO STAR (NAP) should go close again having found only one too good in soft ground at Nottingham last time - he competes off the same mark today. Gioia Di Vita scored over track and trip last month but has been well beaten since and runner-up Gabrial's Hope may reverse running. Dancing Primo's long losing continues despite her slide down the weights but Rockawango has a shout on his latest second at Hamilton. Thackeray will have no problem with the going and In Vino Veritas has been placed off similar marks this season.
