In depth

Verdict

G FOR GABRIAL won over track and trip in January and scored again in an apprentices’ race at Pontefract last week. Richard Fahey’s grey escapes a penalty for that success and can take advantage. International Law has been in good form over shorter trips here though has won over this far in the past and is preferred to Termonator while Lopes Dancer won at Newcastle earlier and is 4lb higher today.
