Verdict
Sam's Gunner won a Grade 3 three years ago but appearances since have been sporadic and he’s never reproduced that form. Sidi Ismael is consistent but now 0-9 over timber while Tabou Beach Boy is still 6lb higher than when successful at Musselburgh last year. CHINWAG has gone up a further 2lb since failing to land the hat-trick at Taunton but the form of that latter race has been franked and Neil Mulholland’s charge will be helped by his rider’s 7lb claim. Conceal has disappointed since second over a longer trip here in November.
