Verdict
Giogiobbo and Samovar were due to run in separate races here yesterday and both would have a chance if taking part. Thrave took advantage of favourable terms to win a claiming race over track and trip last time but this is tougher while Gabrial The Devil won off today’s mark at Chester in September though has yet to win on the all-weather. Oakenshield and KATHEEFA have been struggling but the latter has slid down the weights since winning last year’s renewal and gets a speculative vote to return to form with a tongue-tie fitted for the first time.
