Verdict
GAMAIN won over track and trip last year and scored over a furlong further here on his latest start. Jane Williams’ charge remains on a winning mark despite a 5lb rise and can go in again in this company. Cap Horner won in soft going at Fontwell last month but struggled on faster ground at Exeter last time while Charlie Papa Lima remains unpredictable though posted one of his better efforts at the latter track in January. Over The Arch has been in desperate form for over a year now and gets first-time headgear.
